Focus Groups
Bernett convened its first focus group in 1973. There is no better way to find out what your partners, customers and potential customers think of your advertising, your products, or services. Whatever your needs, focus groups provide the perfect atmosphere for this kind of constructive encounter.
Besides the 10,500 square foot state-of-the-art focus facility at its headquarters at World Trade Center East in Boston, Bernett is also affiliated with focus facilities around the United States.
