You're listening to the Happy Market Research Podcast. The next set of episodes are conversations I had at this year's Corporate Researchers Conference or CRC. This is put on by the Insights Association in Orlando, Florida. I had quite a few interesting conversations highlighting specific companies that exhibited this year as well as a couple of speakers, Wells Fargo, IBM, etc. I hope you have a really good rest of your day and enjoy these short episodes. [00:31] Hi, this is Jamin. You are listening to Happy Market Research Podcast. I am here at the illustrious… Actually, I don't even know the name of the hotel. Travis, what's the name of the hotel? [00:40] It’s the Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando, Florida. [00:43] There you go. We are at CRC, which is the client or customer. Always forget what the first C stands for. [00:49] Corporate Researchers Conference. [00:50] Yep. Corporate Research and associated with the Insights Association, which is actually been one of my personal favorite shows. I've thought this quality of the speakers overall has been pretty good, has been good, not pretty good. Did you listen to Google this morning? [01:06] I did not get a chance to see Google this morning. [01:08] You missed out. So, what happens: (I just found this out), you can listen to the episodes on their app. So, make sure you download the app before you leave and then if you want to listen to it—which I definitely know you want to listen to cause I know you're a thought leader—then you can pick up the key sessions that you wish you could have made, but you couldn't because you drank too much tonight before.

Hi, this is Jamin. You're listening to the Happy Market Research Podcast. The next set of episodes are conversations I had at this year's Corporate Researchers Conference or CRC. This is put on by the Insights Association in Orlando, Florida. I had quite a few interesting conversations highlighting specific companies that exhibited this year as well as a couple of speakers, Wells Fargo, IBM, etc. I hope you have a really good rest of your day and enjoy these short episodes.

[00:31]

Hi, this is Jamin. You are listening to Happy Market Research Podcast. I am here at the illustrious… Actually, I don't even know the name of the hotel. Travis, what's the name of the hotel?

[00:40]

It’s the Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando, Florida.

[00:43]

There you go. We are at CRC, which is the client or customer. Always forget what the first C stands for.

[00:49]

Corporate Researchers Conference.

[00:50]

Yep. Corporate Research and associated with the Insights Association, which is actually been one of my personal favorite shows. I've thought this quality of the speakers overall has been pretty good, has been good, not pretty good. Did you listen to Google this morning?

[01:06]

I did not get a chance to see Google this morning.

[01:08]

You missed out. So, what happens: (I just found this out), you can listen to the episodes on their app. So, make sure you download the app before you leave and then if you want to listen to it—which I definitely know you want to listen to cause I know you're a thought leader—then you can pick up the key sessions that you wish you could have made, but you couldn't because you drank too much tonight before.

[01:30]

There’s so many of the sessions here.

[01:31]

So many sessions here. So PureSpectrum is the name of the company. Travis Miller is the dude I'm talking to. How are you today?

[01:42]

Doing great.

[01:43]

Okay, good. So, tell me a little bit about PureSpectrum. Give everybody the background.

[01:46]

So PureSpectrum, we are a sample management platform. A do-it-yourself tool, API-integrated marketplace, whatever you might call it. But it's a place for people to come in and buy online sample. We're kind of like the expedia.com for sample providers. You can come in, set your sample criteria. You can choose from a number of different sample providers, see their pricing and feasibility and make a determination and launch your project.

[02:11]

We've been using PureSpectrum, FYI. And I will say one of the things that I really like about it is the ease of use of the gooey or the user interface. It's like super easy to use, and it's like sample on tap, which is great from a research ops perspective.

[02:29]

That's one of the biggest compliments that I get from current customers and prospective customers when I show them the platform. They can't believe how easy it is to use. When they do get to use it, we have a team of people that can help answer questions and help out on projects. So, it's not just do-it-yourself, but it frees up a lot of time for a lot of researchers to get to what they need to do. And that's the research, the analytics.

[02:50]

So,
