We Understand Your Audience
We connect brands with parents and families. Our custom,
attitudinal research study helps us all get to know them better.
For more than 35 years, kids and family brands have entrusted LPR to share their stories and drive their business. As experts in the kids and family space, we saw an opportunity to explore a deeper understanding of parents. Through quantitative, attitudinal research, we set out to look beyond demographics and dig into the mindset of parents today – understanding who they are, where they are, and how to reach them in more meaningful and impactful ways.
To share the results back with you in a more actionable way than a standard white paper, we’ve put together a series of blog posts and interactive e-workbooks.
