Reed, thanks so much for making time for us and being on the Happy Market Research Podcast today.

If you'd like to learn more or create your own account, visit hubux.com. I'd like to start out with this context question. Tell us a little bit about your parents, what they did and how that informs what you do today.

[00:01:15]

Reed Cundiff: I love this question, and probably my mom in particular loves this question. Both my parents worked outside the home. My dad was a mechanical engineer at DuPont for over 30 years. And I have to say, he believed in a structured approach to pretty much everything in life as engineers sometimes do, and also had a real strong belief in efficient execution, whether that was at work, whether that was mowing the lawn or whatever the case may be. And so I think that kind of structured approach and focus on efficiency certainly has showed up in my work life and home life. The interesting blend was my mom was a change management and a talent consultant with Towers Perrin and Watson Wyatt and a few other organizations. And so she honestly built a career around the belief and the power of people and teams to be able to tackle pretty much anything in the world and just the importance of human capital within a business context. So together I feel like honestly, it's pretty logical that I ended up here. I couldn't have told you that at 22, but bent towards a structured understanding of the world and a focus on the people side of business has I think really driven me to where I am now.

[00:02:44]

Jamin Brazil: It is a special skill set that you possess and that has thankfully been installed by your family, that both probably in terms of DNA and also obviously observational. So that's super interesting.

I'm really excited about jumping into the topic of your book but before we do, I like to provide a little bit of context. Please tell us about your parents, specifically what they did and how that informs what you do today?

[00:01:07]

Jessica Nordell: That's such an interesting question. I think it was more- I'll tell you what my parents did. I think it was actually more kind of their approach to life that really influenced what I did with my own career. My dad is a retired physician. My mom was a counselor before my sister and I were born. Then after we were born, she stepped back from that role and shifted her attention to researching the stock market. She became kind of an auto didact with investments and kind of understanding companies and how to make sense of companies stock performances. That became her kind of main activity as we were growing up. I think it was really my parents kind of spirit of curiosity that really influenced my choices in my career. There was always this kind of attitude in my house that if you didn't know something, you should go find out the answer. We have a world book encyclopedia and whenever my sister and I had a question about something in the world, my parents would say, why don't you go look it up. I think that really fostered my spirit of curiosity and of just like trying to seek out answers all the time. Which then became my career really as a journalist. That's what we do. We try to uncover what's really going on and try to understand a particular issue from all angles.

[00:02:40]

Jamin Brazil: What year did your mom make the career shift to stock analysis?

[00:02:45]

Jessica Nordell: I think it would have been sort of the early 80's.

Hi Fam!

You are listening to the happy market research podcast. 

Be warned, today's episode is a bit self serving. 

In 2019, I co-founded HubUX. A research operation platform for private panel management, DIY recruitment and qualitative automation.

Why?

Because opinions are moving fast AF. In fact, Gen Z defines themself as the generation that adapts to changing trends. Brands don't even have time to create ads that can benefit from trends. By the time these trends hit their radar they are already on the down in favor of something else.

Keeping track of today's consumers is like watching humming birds on crack. 

Its a bit fun, but impossible to do for very long.

At the same time, recruiting quality particpants for either qual or quant is getting harder and more time consuming. 

HubUX was setup to solve this. How? By recruiting on social meida platforms like TikTok and screening particpants via a robust survey tool that includes video auditions. 

Today, about 60% of the projects done on hubux are surveys. These surveys include several video openends. The rest of the projects are automating IDIs and Focus Group workflow.

With the activity on our platform being video data collection our clients have been asking for a way to quickly analyze their video data. 

This lead us to a decision: Build a video analytics tool (this is really really hard by the way) or partner with the leader in video analytics, Voxpopme. 

I reached out to their leadership. 

After a few conversations we quickly came to the conclusion that combining forces would increase the probability that we own the video feedback space. 

On October 26th, 2023 we announced the merger of hubux and voxpop. 

From my view, the combination of automated research operations and video analytics represent the biggest change in our industry since the invention of surveys in the 1920s, focus groups in 1937, and online surveys in the 1990s.  

You all know me and my histroy. I may have done the first online survey for commerical purposes in the 90s while at Macro Consulting. Dispite the fact that my dislexia makes reading a bit challenging, my brain helps me to see patterns in the market. And it is abundantly clear that video will play a major part in every modern brands' insights department. 

The following is the recording of the live announcement that was streamed on 20+ platforms with Jenn Voguel, CRO, and Voxpop cofounder and CPO, Andy Barraclough. 

Enjoy!

Kate Ioas: For sure. So kind of interesting. So I'm obviously big in the corporate world and neither of my parents really were.

Jamin Brazil: Hey everybody, you are listening to the Happy Market Research Podcast. This is a special episode. I am partnering with Little Bird Marketing. I have my good friend, Ashley Le Blanc, who is joining us today. We are going to be talking about Insights Marketing Day. This is an annual event that is hosted in Chicago, and I hope you can make it. So Ashley, welcome to the show.

[00:00:27]

Ashley Le Blanc: Thanks for having me. I'm excited to talk about Insights Marketing Day. It's one of my favorite events.

[00:00:33]

Jamin Brazil: You know, mine, too. I've been to it for the last couple of years. I always get a ton out of it. You have a great speaker lineup. So why don't we start there? Talk to us a little bit about some of your highlighted speakers.

[00:00:44]

Ashley Le Blanc: What I love about our speaker lineup- of course, this is an event that is geared towards people with a marketing mindset, but we really try to pull our speakers from lots of different industries. So we have Andy Crestodina, he is a fan favorite. He's been at several of our Insights Marketing Day. He's Chicago based, he's from Orbit Media, but he's kind of like our web and SEO guru. So for anyone who has questions about how do I rank for certain keywords, how do I get my website optimizing the correct way, he is the go-to person. He's personally one of my favorite speakers. We'll have other insights professionals like Sequoia Glen, Bob Farrow from Trusted Talent. He's going to be talking a little bit about employee retention, which is always a fun topic. David Paul from Dialsmith and Lillian Labs. So lots of people from in the industry and then several people that are from more of a marketing background or even a growth strategies background too.

[00:01:48]

Jamin Brazil: And of course we have Priscilla McKinney who will be opening the day, as well as I believe speaking. She's got a couple topics, one centered around five LinkedIn tips for conference follow up. By the way conference follow up, conferences are the biggest marketing expenditure in most of our budgets. And we leave so much money on the table because we are not really farming the land after we've sewn the seed, using the metaphor. And so that's going to be super valuable.

This is the second and final post in our series on how generations are viewing the job market and what you can do to ensure you are well prepared for whatever comes. 

Background

In our first episode in this series, we talked about the impact of the US economy on the job market. We also looked at how concerned people actually are about being laid off in the next 12-months. But, with every cloud is a silver lining. In this case, that silver lining is for employers who expressed that there will be some major benefits with a more balanced job market. 

If didn’t tune into that episode, you can find the link in the show notes:

https://happymr.com/ep-562-intergenerational-views-on-the-job-market/

Today, we will be addressing:

How are generation preparing for changes to the job market? What advice would members of different generations give to the unfortunate souls that are laid off?

Why Do Companies Do Layoffs? 

Bad news is bad news. But, understanding the why can help many of us mentally cope with aftermath. 

So, you may find it helpful to understand the business rational for layoffs. And, by understanding a bit more about why companies do layoffs you are more likely to recognize when they are coming and be proactive to avoid or even profit from them. 

Overall, the 300 people we interviewed were positive about the job market despite the difficulties many companies are and will face because of the recession. There will be a lot of job transition as some companies thrive while others suffer and even go out of business. Here is what a few people said,

https://youtu.be/0Zvdma8OOPM

https://youtube.com/shorts/TaukU8q-puw?feature=share

I can speak to the topic of layoffs with some authority. Having built a company from 0-200 full time employees and having been the CEO of a 400-person firm, layoffs are a normal part of any company’s lifecycle. There are a few reasons for this:

Reason 1: Obsolete Function

Healthy companies are in a perpetual state of improving both profitability and growth. Put simply, they invest in systems, people, and technology that allows them to make more money with less resources.  

Here is an example from the warehousing industry: Hiring challenges, workers’ comp, and the promise of more efficient and profitable operations are forcing companies to invest in warehouse automation. Definitionally, automation is designed to replace people. By replacing people companies realize a significant amount of savings over time along with productive improvements. 

Reason 2: Improved Profits

Lower wages in other countries are driving companies to move jobs from the US. For many US companies that have 50+ employees doi...

This is one of a two-part series on how generations are viewing the job market and what you can do to ensure you are well prepared for whatever comes. 

Background

The US job market has enjoyed one the of the longest periods of prosperity despite many economic challenges. However, anxiety about job security is on the rise according to research done by Joblist.com: 

“The job market remained relatively stable in Q2 despite growing concerns about the broader health of the economy. Job growth continues to be strong, and the unemployment rate is holding steady at 3.6% – its lowest rate since January 2020. Yet, as consumers and businesses grapple with inflation, rising interest rates, continued supply chain and COVID-19 disruptions, many worry that a recession is around the corner. Although the job market has proven largely resilient up until this point, the future outlook appears increasingly uncertain.”

This was published on July 11th, 2022. 

Fastforward 2 weeks. And, on July 28th, 2022 the US Bureau of Economic Analysis reported that the economy contracted for the send straight quarter hitting a widely accepted rule of thumb for a recession.

Given these uncertain times, we did our own research to understand how generations are viewing the job market and how we can survive it. We’ll cover three main points: 

How concerned are generations about being laid off in the next 12-months? What game plans do generations have if they are laid off?What advice would members of different generations give to survive a layoff?

This podcast will focus on point 1. We’ll address points 2 and 3 in next week’s episode. 

Job Market Outlook

Our survey was conducted using HubUX and included Video Questions instead of text-based open ends. These video open ends along with using Research Defender’s screening API, ensured we were talking to real humans. 

Gen Z and Millennials are significantly more concerned that they’ll be laid off in the next 12-months than Gen X and Boomers (those of us over 41 years old).

We asked 300 people, “How concerned are you about being laid off in the next 12-months?”. Gen Z and Millennials stated they are two times more concerned than older generations. 

Q7. How concerned are you that you may be laid off in the next 12-months?  by Q1. What is your age?

Gen ZMillennialGen XBoomerI am not concerned at all43% 33% 55% 81% I am somewhat concerned30% 40% 32% 8% I am very concerned26% 27% 14% 11% 

Key Takeaways: 

We then asked our participants a few video questions about their view on the economy and here is what they said. Please note that I choose the videos that had the broadest representation of what was said.

Aryn O’Donnell: Well, I have to admit, when I took my first job with Fieldwork, I had no idea what market research was. After college, I really had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up. And just by different connections, I was able to work as a client service specialist in my hometown of Denver with the Fieldwork team. And growing up, there was always an element of market research that I was interested in, but I never knew the vocabulary around it. I really enjoyed learning about people and their motivations and decision-making processes. And once I started working as a client service specialist, I really began to better understand why so many companies use research and in...

My intent is to help ensure that we as research professionals can continue to have productive conversations and keep open minds during these highly emotional times. Two hundred and forty-six years ago on July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress formally adopted a declaration of independence. From then on, the Fourth of July became the day that we as Americans celebrate as a birth of American independence. But independence from what exactly? Well, in short taxes without representation, but put more simply taxes without direct benefit. According to Wikipedia, American colonists objected to being taxed by the British Parliament,

Management Tips for Gen Z (Part Two)

This is the second installment of a 2-part series on the topic of “Tips For Managing Your Gen Z Employees”.

In May 2022, Chris Hauck, founder of HauckEye and Erin Sowell, founder of Thoughtful Research gave a talk at QRCA’s annual event in San Diego titled: “Connecting Generations”. Their work analyzed how each generation views both itself and other generations. 

You can find links to both of their profiles at the end of this blog post. I know both of them would love the opportunity to engage with you about their research on generational differences.  

How Gen Z Views Themselves 

According to Chris and Erin’s report, Gen Z views themselves as: 

Tech savvyOpen mindedCreativeFast learnersDetail oriented

How Other Generations View Gen Z

All generations see Gen Z as Tech Savvy. However, there are some negative views held by older generations when describing Gen Zers including… 

EntitledLazy NeedyMoves too fastNarcissistic

While all of us have struggled with scrutiny from older generations, things are different today. We are in the tightest labor market in the last 30 years. This tight labor market means companies are having to cator more and more to employees wants, needs, and even desired. Simply put, if your first job was in the 80s, 90s or early 2000s, you probably had to do a lot of adapting to your work environment. 

For me, Gen X had to conform to the value system of Boomers. The outcomes where on work life balance. In fact, Gen X had to get approval for doctor appointments during the workday. 

My first job was in the mid 90s. We were required to get approval for even a 30-minute dentist appointment. And, if you were out of the office for any length of time, the minimum PTO cost was half a day. 

Not only were corporate policies prioritizing time at work, Boomers and Gen Xers saw working long hours as a badge of honor. In fact, employees would expect social shaming by peers and managers alike if you had several doctor visits in a month. 

The advice I was given by my dad was, “If you want to be the best employee, be the first in and last out every day.”

Compare that to this TikTok of a Gen Zer explaining ...

Rob Volpe: So my parents, Mike and Margaret. When I was growing up, my dad was in sales all of my life, and my mom was a homemaker until I was in junior high/high school. She went back to school, got her MBA, and then she started working in the military for the Navy, ultimately building or working on the design and build-out of a new class of submarine to which she obviously had...

Today is May 9th, 2022. Happy Monday! 

You’re listening to the Happy Market Research podcast. I’m Jamin Brazil, your host. 

Support for the Happy Market Research Podcast and the following message comes from Michigan State's Marketing Research Program & HubUX.
