At Commune we believe if you look and listen closely, someone you barely know can give you many of the insights you need to know.
Commune was created as boutique recruiting agency because we see recruiting as a specialized service that requires care, consideration, and flexibility. We carefully hand pick consumers for individual projects taking into consideration the project requirements and the characteristics of our respondents.
Our Team
CLARE RAMSEY
President and Founder
Clare Ramsey is an established trend forecaster and market researcher, having worked in the industry for over 20 years. In her tenure as an executive at the Intelligence Group (a division of CAA) Clare was not only considered an expert in trend prediction, but also an exceptional recruiter with an amazing ability to find the perfect respondents for every project. Clare was a writer for The Intelligence Group’s daily trend email Cassandra Daily (TrendCentral) as well as the Cassandra Report, Mom Report, New Family Report and Tween Report. Clare also spearheaded and recruited for Intelligence Group’s Trend Treks and Trend Schools.
Her educational background – a Masters of Public Health from New York University and a History of Design Degree from Manchester Metropolitan University (UK) – validated her love of research, aesthetics, and her secret desire to be an anthropologist.
Clare hand recruits mainstream and trendsetter consumer panels in the states and around the world. She credits her success in trend prediction to the insight provided by the consumers she recruits. Commune was inspired by that success.
