"Nobody does it like Reality Check—they have mastered the real science and art to digging for human truths, those that pave the way to deeper understanding for our consumers that puts us in a competitive advantage—as we learn the human tensions that uniquely fit our own brands’ purpose, and create a real human narrative that takes front and center of everything that we do."
Jericho Razon | Founder and Principal, Brand & Deliver Consulting
"The RealityCheck team was instrumental in helping us identify core tensions of our consumers. After they completed in-depth psychological interviews, they facilitated workshops with large cross-functional teams. The objective of these workshops was to help the brand teams develop tension territories that would become the foundation for future brand-building work. They led the cross-functional teams through multiple creative exercises that helped them articulate the tension areas clearly and efficiently. We were very pleased with the outcomes, and the brand teams still reference these workshops a year later."
Susanne Klausner | Director of Strategy & Insights, Nestle Purina Petcare
"The RealityCheck team has helped us become more human-centric as a company. This is evident in their research approach and findings, but they are also one of the few companies who can act as a true thought partner and help drive change in an organization, person-by-person. As we aim to get all of our associates much closer to the people we serve, their guidance and coaching has unlocked the hidden empath in many of us."
Sarah Maloy | VP, Global Insights Strategy, PepsiCo
"I’ve been working with RealityCheck for 15 years. They never settle for the obvious answer. They always look to go deeper, to truly understand how your brand fits within the larger picture of people’s lives. But it’s not just their approaches. They are a pleasure to work with and act as true partners on every project."
Shaun Belongie | Chief Marketing at New Belgium Brewing and Bell's Brewery | Ex Nestle, Kraft, Accenture
"Reality Check’s approach of understanding Life Stage moments has truly shifted the way our brand teams think about their consumers. Focusing on a specific milestone has brought enormous learnings to NWPB, allowing us to go deeper with our consumers than we ever have been able to in the past. The insights that we have discovered will lay the strategic foundation for years to come with some of our brands."
Christine Turk | Consumer Insights Lead, Nestle Waters & Premium Beverages
