This is why we do what we do.
Feedback from our clients on projects:
“Thank you for today’s successful webinar presentation. The guts and information crunched and analysed from the material was eloquently put into this report, and I am hopeful and positive it will be received.
This report will be a valuable and well used resource for ANR and the wider sector.”
“Patternmakers do such amazing groundwork in the research and insights space that so many of us don’t have time to do ourselves. ”
“The Audience Outlook Monitor reports created for Queensland are very valued and its great to see and hear colleagues and the sector referencing the research.”
“The Patternmakers team were a dream to deal with - they were thorough, insightful and very helpful in delivering a robust report that can be used across multiple disciplines across the business from decision making on product to marketing”
“The project was, simply put, a game changer for the company. The insights delivered, the nuance and strategic thinking in its findings, they set the company on a reinvigorated course for its future.”
“You brought insightful perspective, rigour and focus to the evaluation and always showed a preparedness to work alongside the team to get the intent and nuance of the findings articulated.”
“THANK YOU for your exceptional hard work on this. It’s great, everything we asked for. Tight, concise and clean, provocative, helpful and evidenced. We are delighted!”
“I’ve had requests from many asking for me to share the report with them. It’s so useful and easy to read.”
“Tandi is a delight to work with, because she is really outcome oriented in her work. She is great at identifying key insights and posing the hard questions in the most diplomatic way.”
“This research has us changing our thinking about the way we articulate what we do as a company.”
“Tandi brings savvy insight into the workings of arts and culture research, and contributes ideas from new angles and with a fresh perspective. Partnering with her helped to deepen my thinking - it was challenging and enriching.”
“It was fantastic to have Patternmakers come and us all work together, instead of just telling us what to do.
It was inclusive in that you brought our skillset and influence into the space and made sense of it all.”
“This was an ambitious project and without a partner of your standard and commitment I don’t think we would have made it. Sending you sincere thanks and appreciation for your work. ”
“The four years of research were extremely well received in each of the participating countries, allowed us to confirm ongoing funding for each year of the project and also to measure and refine each years program content - a highly satisfying outcome.”
“Tandi is an essential part of the creative industries landscape. She is providing much needed support to help arts and culture sector professionals get up to speed on research, data analysis and evaluation... Her company Patternmakers is highly sought after for advice, and she has received outstanding feedback from clients and colleagues. I have had the privilege of recommending her to my clients, and asking her to run workshops for my organisation. I hope we can continue to partner in the long term!”
“It was a pleasure to collaborate with Tandi from Patternmakers on the development and delivery of Creative Victoria’s Audience Research Toolkit. The Toolkit was well received, reported to be both comprehensive and responsive to sector needs.
Tandi is someone who is hungry for new experiences and challenges. She will go out of her way to see a job well done and done thoroughly. I highly recommend Tandi for future endeavors.”
“The scale of this collaboration makes it one of the most innovative research partnerships ever seen in this field. Aggregating data in this way is mutually beneficial for all parties and gives us an accurate and timely read on audience sentiment – exactly the kind of thinking needed to fuel innovation and realise more of the benefits of arts and creativity for our society during the pandemic.”
“Huge congratulations to you all. Your findings and reports are constantly being cited in communications between all levels of government and sector advocacy groups. Speaks highly of your approach and the value to us of having such a strong evidence base to work from.”
