The Company

MLN Research was founded in 1987 by a single researcher, Megan Loughlin Nerz. Megan started the company as full service qualitative marketing and communications research firm. Over the years, MLN Research became a highly respected qualitative research firm with industry-leading clients like The LEGO Group, Kraft, and Disney. 

At MLN Research, our ultimate goal is to help our clients make the right strategic decisions based on our research findings and insights. However, we also believe that research doesn't have to be boring! To that end, our researchers actively seek creative and unique ways to adapt consumer data into actionable and winning marketing strategies. 

One major thing that sets us apart is our size: MLN Research is comprised of four researchers with experience in all aspects of qualitative research. When working with MLN, your project won't get passed from a coordinator to a moderator to a writer–our researchers do it all. This approach means consistency and expertise from the beginning to the end of your project.
