"DataJoe clients are very different from each other, and our research methods and use of product vary significantly. I learn something new or find new possibilities every time I talk with other researchers, whether through a workshop, a webinar, the forum or a telephone call. Sometimes it's a small thing — a software tweak I hadn't noticed or a new Web site to check out— and other times it's huge, such as a new way to design surveys or increase response rates. But always I'm amazed at how creative my fellow users are. I can't wait to learn what some of the veterans are doing this year, and even more so, how newcomers are using DataJoe."
~Alaine Keisling, Researcher, Central Penn Business Journal
"Doing research for a business publication is a unique job. There aren't a ton of us out there. Put a couple dozen researchers from across the country in a single room and ideas explode. The 2007 DataJoe Summer Conference provided the perfect environment for researchers to share ideas and network. Look forward to exchanging ideas again this year!"
~Anne Marks, Data Editor, Crains Detroit Business Journal
"The DataJoe conference I attended last year was fantastic for me and our company. I can't imagine what it would be like switching over to DJ4 this month without attending the seminar. I learned about inner projects, creating columns in my surveys and organizing my surveys better. The opportunity to network, discuss, share ideas and collaborate with other users in our industry was priceless. The conference was worth every penny and I won't miss it again."
~Tyler Anderson, Director of Circulation & Research, Business Examiner
