Focus Groups

Catalyst Ranch is the choice of cutting edge market researchers who are on the forefront of their profession, developing innovative ways to gain valuable information and insights from consumers. Market research techniques continue to evolve, but the facilities typically used for focus groups have remained the same for decades. Our space, your research.

Let respondents relax in an environment that has been uniquely designed by Catalyst Ranch to reduce inhibitions – filled with comfy couches, armchairs, coffee tables, handcrafted rugs, colorfully painted walls, paintings and ethnic accents. Get them talking. That’s why they’re here.
Our space, your insights.

Your clients will be thrilled they no longer need to spend their days (and nights) tucked into a small, darkened observation room. They can watch the groups in ultimate comfort in one of our spacious rooms. We’ll provide an LCD projector and screen or a flat screen TV for viewing.
Our space, your happy clients.

We’ll help with handy technology: wireless internet, LCD projectors, DSL hook-ups, computers, printers at no charge. We offer usual and unusual meeting supplies too. Think crayons. Think feather boas. There’s videography, transcription and recruiting services for hire. Think full service. Click here to see information on rates.

Big Delicious Planet. Delicious is their middle name. They’re our catering partner, plying you, your clients and your respondents with delectable, inventive cuisine from the world over. And, they have an in-house Pastry chef! Mmmmmm. Click here to see menus.

We’re accessible. Smack dab in downtown Chicago, with easy parking, trains, cabs, sidewalks. Fine dining and lodging within strolling distance, too.

Waltz over here the first time. You’ll jitterbug back.

“Last week I had the opportunity to experience your facility for the first time with a group I was facilitating. I feel compelled to share my thoughts with you and your team. First, let me say that feeling welcome is an understatement. In most cases, when you walk into a venue you are ignored at best. Your team was very proactive in letting me know their name, how they could be helpful, not just once but regularly. Wow, what a difference having someone available makes in easing my stress level when setting up. What a great experience for my group and the learning, well, that was inevitable. You just help me to look good. I would recommend this venue to others without question. Thanks again for a great week.”
Diane Obrist-Lynam, The Gallop Organization
