    Demetrius M. Parker Communication Specialist, CDC

    “We consider ThinkNow Research a partner more than a vendor. At every level of interaction, they are fully engaged and embrace our business as if it was their own. We rely heavily on their expertise and understanding of the Hispanic audience”

    Brooke Lorenz Brooke Lorenz - Dish Latino

    "We as Insight Latam carry out projects with panels in multiple countries in Latam, and definitely, ThinkNow has helped us to achieve our objectives, of quality levels and response times that we offer to our clients."

    A. Juilo Monteagudo Viera CEO, Insight Latam

    "We started working with ThinkNow during our media company and start-up careers - when we made the decision to launch our own strategic advisory dedicated to culture-forward business strategies, they were the natural choice to power our primary research requirements. Not only is their approach unique in a world drowning in often-useless diversity data, but they approach their work with a bias to excellence, service and character."

    Charlie Echeverry CEO & Managing Director

    “ThinkNow Research has been an excellent partner to the Ad Council. They’ve been very flexible with our tracking study schedules, provided high quality input when developing our questionnaire and always deliver everything we ask for on time.”

    Center for Disease Control

    Chikungunya is a mosquito borne illness that causes fever, joint pain, headache, muscle pain, joint swelling and rash. One of the main entry points into the U.S. for the virus is the porous U.S./Mexico border region. Specifically, Spanish-speaking borderregion residents that frequently travel between the U.S. and Mexico.

    CDC was concerned that awareness of the virus was very low among Spanish speakers.

    Prospects within the border were highly suspicious of rumors of deportation.

    ThinkNow Research worked with local community organizations and within the CDC to enhance our recruitment outreach. This means, ThinkNow Research successfully conducted a series of in person focus groups along the U.S./Mexico border of bicultural and unacculturated Hispanic residents, in order to determine how best to communicate the dangers of Chikungunya to this demographic.

    • San Diego, CA
    • Las Cruces, NM
    • McAllen, TX
    • Nogales, AZ
    • El Paso, TX

    Throughout weekly meetings and comparisons of findings, we worked as a team with the CDC to uncover messaging and images that affirmed a clear message with the focus group participants. The CDC was able to determine which collateral communications and overall language and visual constructions were most effective in communicating how to avoid contracting and/or spreading of the virus.

    They made changes to their messaging and collateral based on our research results and distributed the new materials to healthcare centers throughout the region.

    73%

    of the targeted audience is now correctly informed of the Chikungunya virus.

    40%

    of cases decreased in the following 6 months.
