Cynopsis: Kids!
12/05/11
Good morning. It’s Monday, December 5, 2011, and this your first early morning briefing.
Answering a few questions this week is Stacey Matthias, Co-CEO of Insight Strategy Group, which prior to this week was known as Insight Research Group. Matthias co-founded Insight Strategy Group in 1998 with Boaz Mourad. A human development expert, prior to this she worked for Applied Research Consulting (ARC), and before that for Sach’s Insights, where she managed research studies on interactive applications. Before stepping into the research arena Matthias developed educational software for HyperStudio, and taught in a Head Start Classroom. She is currently a Ph.D candidate at CUNY in Developmental Psychology. Matthias and Mourad live in NYC with their two daughters.
You’ve worked a range of kid-centric clients, including Crayola, Nickelodeon, Corus Entertainment and Scholastic, among many others, what are these companies looking for when they come to your firm?
The common denominator is that our clients want to build beloved brands and successful businesses while doing right by kids. We believe our job is to help our clients to create inspiring experiences for children experiences that help kids have fun while doing the work of growing up.
What is the biggest challenge for you about doing research with kids to make sure that you are getting honest and useful responses?
The biggest challenge is to make the research fun for kids. We know we get the clearest, most honest responses when kids are truly engaged. So as much as possible, we try to integrate play and “data collection.”
In addition, the key is to meet kids where they are developmentally we tailor our research approach to the age group we are studying based on what we know about where they are in their cognitive, emotional and physical development. For instance, we may ask a 3 year old, who is still a very concrete thinker, to express their opinion of a TV show or product by pointing at pictures of kids with happy or sad faces. For a 10 year old who has more sophisticated cognitive abilities we can ask them to sort, prioritize and engage in abstract exercises like “if this toy was a country what would it be like to live there?”
As you say on your website, kids are different. How does doing research with kids differ from doing the same with adults or specifically their parents?
In terms of research techniques, what works well with kids works with adults, but the reverse is not true. So we find our kid techniques often migrate to our adult practice! For example, inspired by a method we used with children, we asked women to role play with dolls to gain insight into their perspective on evolving gender roles.
In terms of the parent/child dynamic, we find that parents know their kids well, of course, but often can’t predict what their kids will like or why they will like it. We often talk to parents and kids together, and then separate them to get a reaction to a new concept, show or product. This will reveal disparities like yesterday a mom said a show was “too dark and too scary” while at the same time her son was telling us “It’s awesome because [the good guy] really has to fight for what’s right and do the right thing. I like how he is brave even though the [the bad guy] is so super strong and scary.”
You are co-CEO with Boaz Mourad (also your husband), how does that work? I love my husband, but doubt I could work in the same office with him every day…
It is funny, because at this point it is hard to imagine not working together! It’s a true partnership in our relationship, as parents, and at work. I feel lucky to have a business partner (and husband) for whom I have so much trust and respect. In both work and as a couple, we think alike in many many ways, and are also quite different from each other which provides a healthy balance. I think we are both considered to be pretty strong thinkers, but I play the idealist and he plays the realist (except when it comes to vacations, then we switch). It’s a yin/yang thang.
Have you ever had a situation where the kids in research said one thing and the product was released and the public response was vastly different?
Never. Just kidding. People ask this question a lot, and it’s tough because it is not a simple linear relationship. Many factors impact how a product or media property comes to market the marketing behind it, how it is executed in the end, what the competition is doing at time of release, what expectations for success are for the client, etc. All this being said, we usually have a pretty strong sense of the flops and the winners early on. A big part of what we do is reduce risk by helping to identify things that aren’t working and to inform how to improve them before they come to market.
You grew up moving around a lot, spending much of that time traveling in a VW bus. How did that experience inform what you do now?
Life is funny. I think my nomadic upbringing made me a sort of social scientist at a young age. Moving around to different regions of the country and living in their different sub-cultures, I always had to figure out which social norms stayed the same and which ones changed. Of course this wasn’t conscious of it at the time, but as I entered into a new school or town I was trying to decipher “How do people in this place work? What are the rules?” My husband and partner moved around a lot too, so we have this in common.
I have personally sat in a lot of research rooms and have heard lots of strange and funny things. What is the funniest or wildest thing a kid has ever said during a focus group?
Well this wasn’t a kid, but last week a mom emailed us a picture of her kid’s poop on the floor. That was unprecedented.
So moms can be wacky (as well as wise). Kids are usually cute and profound at the same time. Like describing SpongeBob as “nerdy in a good way” or in response to the line “nobody is perfect.” A 6 year old responds, “That’s not true. Everyone is perfect.”
Ummmmm – interesting, I can honestly say that is unique. Did the mom indicate that this had anything to do with what you were talking about in the focus group?
I have to protect client confidentiality, but suffice to say we are doing a study on how things are movin’.

Sweety High, a new creativity-centric social game and lifestyle community targeted to girls 8-16 has gone live. Designed to provide girls with an opportunity to express themselves creatively through user generated original content of all sorts, Sweety High, was co-founded by Frank Simonetti, a film and TV writer/producer/director and graphic designer, and Veronica Zelle, a music video producer and developer. Sweety High is COPPA compliant. On the site girls 8-16 can acquire virtual currency (goods) and earn real world rewards and experiences by taking part in Sweety High’s various creative activities (e.g. videos, acting, singing and dancing, journalism, animation and creative writing). Girls can also gather virtual “Hearts” to unlock exclusive programming, contests and “Be a Star” opportunities as they progress through the game’s 40+ levels, during which they can earn a chance to participate in various career industries through the Be a Star program offered every eight weeks. Through the current Be a Star opportunity, Make your Way to the Runway, one girl will get the chance to meet fashion experts, design an outfit that will be produced by Bebop Clothing and featured in Sweety High’s series Glam Squad, produced by Sweety High Productions.
