I am…
On Focus Group Moderating/Qual. Consulting:
I found Almin to be an articulate and thoughtful speaker, and an aware and present listener. He was definitely the facilitator we needed. With cameras on, people tend to shy away, but from the onset Almin kept the group at ease, weaving through the agenda and always keeping the contributors on point and on task. Always willing to go the extra mile, consistently prepared, and a joy to work with, I personally recommend Almin and look forward to working with him again.

Of special note is the Ninja program used in Samurai - It has been so effective that when someone types in a persons name that we have mentioned in one of the pages on the site on Google the DYNAMIS page comes up on the first page. This was a very welcome surprise!
- Matthew Shewchuk: Chief Operating Officer, Dynamis
You really know what you're talking about. The website design, content feedback and overall experience has been more than I ever expected. I'm inspired by your commitment to do a great job for your clients.
- Charly Kelly: Energy Life Science
The campaign has brought a new level of professionalism to the brand communication and has created increased interaction with consumers.

Website Design
Intuitively Simple
StyleLabs has built a "Facebook Easy" Content Management System that allows users to manage and modify their website as easily as updating a Facebook profile, or posting a tweet! Our mandate was to build a technology "BY Entrepreneurs, FOR Entrepreneurs." Choosing Samurai for your next website means having web real estate already coded for optimal search engine optimization ("SEO"), having the freedom to write a blog , create an additional page, facilitating drip campaigns, fully integrated social media with two way communication and building video/picture galleries. We excel in our field because the design of our infrastructure was based on marketing best practices as well as the most effective, current tools available. Our greatest asset is the "Samurai Brain." All sites are built off this brain, that allows for crowd-sourced maintainence. Consider this: You notice a bug on your blog. You report this bug. Samurai CMS is the evolution of Website Design for Small and Medium sized businesses.

Online Communities (Research Portals)
Cutting Edge
Imagine an Online Research Community, with a full CMS Suite, best in class Survey Toolbox, Social Media Integration, a Shopping Cart with a Customizable Rewards Currency + analytics. Now imagine being able to administer it with Samurai's 10 button back office. CONNECT. Under Promise, Over Deliver. Everytime. Non Negotiable.
Fan Pages
Social
Fan Pages are a critical part of any organization’s branding toolbox. We believe that a Fan Page is a conduit that enables an organization to leverage Facebook’s 800+ Million active users and capture their attention and direct them to a website for conversion. Secondarily, the accumulation of Fan’s allows segmented (targeted) broadcasts/updates real time, on demand. Our Fan Pages are unique. Essentially, we cut a hole out of the Facebook interface and deploy an app which acts as a miniaturized version of the website within the Fan Page. This means that any change on the site, changes on Facebook as well. Furthermore, our Fan Pages are portable! You can send invites to other Fan Pages/Communities on Facebook and (once accepted) embed your Fan Page as a side tab inside their page. This exposes your product to different demographics and target markets depending on the page and community. The interactivity of these pages empowers you to sell products online, run contests, create forums, push out all your site’s content and capture leads that are stored on your Website’s database!
Focus Groups + Surveys
Actionable
The BEST Qualitative Researchers (Moderators) exhibit four common traits:
1. They have strong roots.
2. They are innovators.
3. They are entrepreneurial.
4. They understand how the results of the research will affect business.
So why me?
1. I have strong roots...
I put myself through school working retail 30 hours/week. Always being the youngest and most technological affluent in my group, I was expected to leverage this new tool called the "internet" (1998) to attract (and retain) customers, ensure they were happy with our service and automate dialogue using email campaigns. In the process, I learned how to communicate. I realized that the art of selling, involved asking the right questions rather than immediately calling to action. As a researcher, the proverberial sale is authentic, unfiltered feedback from a research participant. To effectively control a testing environment, a moderator must:
- Understand fieldwork. Without a good recruiter, you can't get good respondents. Good think we have our own in-house field division.
- Understand client objectives and subject matter. A moderator that doesn't understand the business is a slave to a discussion guide.
- My mentor always said, "work the dialogue, not the discussion guide. You have to recognize when something important gets said, to seize the moment and go for it."
- Establish credibility through humor, authenticity and a sufficient knowledge base.
