Why Taylor?
The Taylor Group is an evidence-based consulting firm conducting high-end, custom research for clients in a variety of industry sectors. All research projects The Taylor Group manages are 100% client-proprietary and custom-designed—from start to finish. We respond to all client RFPs with a thoughtful, well-considered proposal detailing our understanding of the business objectives, our recommended approach, timing, and fees. We take a highly consultative approach from the proposal phase, to the design of the research instrument, to the analytical plan, and all the way through to reporting the study results. No project is considered complete until the client has reviewed the findings thoroughly and had the chance to tailor the insights to their particular interests and focus of their end clients.
Our primary advantages, as we see them:
Experience

Expertise

Size
