Testimonials

“I thought CMCI was perfect. They know the Corvallis and Albany area and were able to select appropriate locations for each interaction point. They also handled all of the logistics, from garnering permission from the locations to be on site to developing the questions and doing the research and analysis. The final report was very comprehensive and professionally assembled.”

— Mindy DeForest, Account Manager, Funk/Levis

 

“We have worked with CMCI for more than 10 years. They’ve done numerous projects for us related to student recruitment to find out how prospective students make college choices. When CMCI showed Out There concepts to the focus groups, it was the best and most enthusiastic response we’ve ever received on our materials. We had students say they hadn’t considered OSU as an option but would after seeing the Out There materials.”

— Melody Oldfield, Assistant Vice President of University Marketing, OSU

 

“When I came onto the property, the beauty of the golf course, clearly one-of-a-kind, was clearly a strength, and the weakness of the property was just the age of the facilities — and the business model. I saw the opportunity to come in with a new model, one that is not so not so golf-centric, and a new branding that would attract a younger audience.”

— Randy Falk, General Manager, The Corvallis Club
