Wow! The data package we bought was affordable, comprehensive, and saved months of time gathering it all in-house. Better yet, William has been great to work with, customizing and adding to the data as we need. This is NOT an off-the shelf, cookie-cutter package. This is the best data service I have ever used and I can't recommend it enough.

Not being a natural tourist destination, our community worked with Cobalt to identify potential new events that could attract visitors from out of town. Cobalt conducted research testing ideas with focus groups and surveys.
Among other positive results, that research formed the foundation for a new winter festival that, over its first three years, has attracted approximately 10,000 people to Charlotte from across the Upper Midwest. The festival has grown each year, and is proving to be financially sustainable.
I am looking forward to working with Cobalt on future projects. The organization is professional, personable and results-oriented.
