Branding Review from Yao Yao, PMP
We had the pleasure of partnering with Happy Dog on our client's sponsorship activation at Barclays Center, and they delivered exceptional results within a tight timeline of less than four weeks from planning to execution.
Their design work was not only creative but also perfectly aligned with the project's vision, and their execution demonstrated great attention to detail. Ryan and Christina were professional and outstanding in coordinating with various teams and stakeholders, ensuring smooth communication and seamless integration across all aspects of the activation.
This was an excellent collaboration, and we're excited to work together again in the future!

Review from Google

Janet McGlaughlin's Review Sourced from Google
“Trusting someone with your “baby” is a huge leap of faith for any business owner. However, from the start, my instincts told me this no-nonsense agency would work hard to represent Marmion and our team with integrity and purpose, and go on to create something we could all be truly proud of.
Our rebrand was made possible by the exceptional team at HUB. Their ability to capture our vision, values, and ambition was deeply moving (actual tears), and the outcome speaks for itself. Not only was this a big investment, it was personal for me, as it represents a lot of hard work and effort. So it mattered that they got it right, and they did.
This was a team effort from Hub (Rob, Helen, Josh, Vicki - to name a few) amazing people with enormous emotional intelligence, and they have all been a joy to work with. They now take care of all our socials and brand development (Hana, Mark and Vicki). All in all we couldn’t have asked for a better partner. Thank you … you just got us from day one, in the same way we got you.😊
PS They also managed to get us through a photoshoot, which is pretty impressive. However, we managed to capture them too😜

Matthew Lindon's Review Sourced from Google
My experience working with Hub has been outstanding. Their depth of knowledge and expertise far exceeds that of other marketing companies I've worked with in the past.
They are highly responsive, quick to implement practical requirements, and consistently provide insights that help shape key business decisions and direction. This high standard extends across the entire team—each member is supportive, professional, and clearly competent in their field.
Would recommend.

Three web design and SEO agencies later, Uncuva has surpassed our expectations by a mile. Wouldn't look anywhere else, Peter has been fantastic, so supportive and patient with all our requirements. Our website is flawless, four months in and Uncuva have managed to rank us first on google, county wide! No other agency was capable of achieving this in such a short period of time, although other agencies were eager to take our money... Highly recommend Uncuva, you won't be disappointed.

James Finch-knightley's Review Sourced from Google
I partnered with Uncuva Design to refresh our outdated website and couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first conversation, the team took the time to understand our brand, goals, and customer journey. What they delivered was more than just a pretty site — it’s fast, mobile-friendly, and built to convert.
Their design work is stunning, but what really stood out was the strategic thinking behind every layout and feature. They’re not just designers — they’re problem-solvers and digital growth experts. Communication was clear throughout, deadlines were met, and every tweak we requested was handled quickly and professionally.
Highly recommend Uncuva Design to any business looking for a modern, high-performing website that actually drives results.

Peter and his team at Uncuva have built us an amazing brand and website, and it wasn't an easy, straightforward task. It took some effort, but Peter found a way to make everything just right. We have had a few small issues as you would expect, but Uncuva has provided excellent aftercare service. We shall continue working with Uncuva for all our SEO and marketing needs. Thanks guys!

Zane from Astory Media took amazing photos of the event I was involved in at Roe River Books on the Friday night at Dundalk Poetry Festival 2026. He also took professional portrait photos afterwards for me. His photography of the night told a story of an uplifting, inspirational event through pictures. I was so impressed with the quality of the photos and how he captured key moments effortlessly. He was helpful and friendly and it was easy to relax for natural photos. I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

What are the red flags when evaluating market research companies?
The most disqualifying red flag is a market research firm that proposes a methodology before diagnosing your problem. This is a common indication that the firm is reverse-engineering your question to fit their existing fieldwork infrastructure, rather than designing a study to answer what you actually need to know.
You should also consider the panel opacity; namely, any market research company that can't specify whether they're using a river sample, a proprietary panel, or a blended approach, and what their median panel tenure and re-contact intervals look like, might be concealing a data quality problem.
Other red flags to watch out for are:
Case studies with no stated confidence intervals or margin of error.
A research director who goes silent after kickoff and hands you to a junior analyst.
Proposals that treat sample size as a fixed number rather than a function of your required subgroup precision.
If the agency doesn't ask how granular your cross-tabulations need to be before they quote an n-size.
How much does it cost to hire a market research company?
A custom market research project from a professional firm can cost from $25,000 to $65,000, with specialist market research commanding the higher end of that range.
In terms of variables, there are five factors that affect final pricing:
Methodology: Qualitative research (focus groups, in-depth interviews) costs more than quantitative (surveys) because it involves harder-to-reach participants and higher incentives per respondent.
Sample size: More respondents means higher fieldwork and incentive costs, wherein the minimum viable sample varies significantly by methodology.
Incidence rate: This is the percentage of the general population who qualify for your study. Low incidence multiplies sample costs because the firm has to screen far more people to fill each completed interview slot.
Survey length: More questions mean longer field periods, more respondent drop-off, and more data to clean, code, and tabulate.
Quality and credibility of analysis: Basic cross-tabulation is fairly cheap, whereas advanced analytics entail higher fees.
What do market research agencies charge that most clients don't expect?
The costs most clients don't see coming are fieldwork overruns, unbundled data processing fees, and multi-market add-ons. Here are a few more details about each cost:
Fieldwork overruns: When your target audience is harder to find than the agency assumed, you pay more per respondent to hit your sample size. For example, a study targeting general consumers might screen 1 in 3 people. A study targeting, say, finance decision-makers at mid-market companies who've evaluated a new vendor recently might screen 1 in 12 people; that gap multiplies your fieldwork cost fast.
Data processing fees: Cleaning and organizing your data after fieldwork closes isn't included by default, and each step gets billed separately. The service entails making the sample representative of your target population, categorizing written responses by hand, and merging qualitative and quantitative findings into one coherent output.
Multi-market add-ons: If your study runs across multiple countries, everything it takes to make the research work locally (translating the survey, verifying the translation is culturally accurate, and confirming findings hold up in each market) is almost never included in the base quote.
The safest way to obtain an accurate proposal is to ask the agency for a full cost-at-risk breakdown, i.e., a list of every line item that could increase based on fieldwork conditions or scope changes.
How do I know if I'm hiring the right market research firm for my budget?
The right market research agency is the one that's honest about what your budget can and can't buy.
The real risk is underspending just enough to get a study that looks credible but can't answer your actual question:
Pricing research with a sample too small to break down results by customer segment
Segmentation work that identifies clusters in the data, but can't tell you how to reach or sell to any of them
Concept testing run on a general audience that doesn't resemble your actual buyer
A credible market research company will tell you upfront if your budget constrains the methodology.
What does a bad engagement with a market research agency look like, and how do I avoid it?
Bad engagements follow the same pattern almost every time: a vague brief, a proposal that doesn't challenge it, and a final deliverable that presents data without telling you what to do with it. Underdelivered outcome looks different depending on what you hired them for:
Segmentation studies. The research identifies customer groups statistically, but those groups don't map to any audience you can actually reach or any go-to-market move you can actually make.
Concept testing. The study tells you which concept scored highest, but doesn't inform why the others scored lower, or what's driving the preference, rendering you unable to improve anything or make a confident call.
Pricing research. The agency asks respondents directly what they'd pay. Respondents don't answer that question honestly. The result looks like data but reflects no real purchase behavior.
In practice, these aren't unusual outcomes. More so, they tend to happen when a market research company takes a brief at face value instead of pressure-testing whether the methodology actually answers the main question.
Before you proceed with collaboration, ask the agency three things:
When does it make sense NOT to hire a market research company?
Hiring a market research firm only makes sense when you have a genuine information gap: a decision that's significant, hard to reverse, and cannot be answered with data you already have. Outside of that, you're paying for research you don't need.
Skip the service if your timeline is too short. A properly designed study with a screener, fieldwork, data cleaning, and analysis takes weeks. Rushing that process cuts quality controls, and data with hidden flaws will ultimately give you false confidence. That's worse than no data at all. If you need an answer within two weeks, you're better off with:
8-12 in-depth interviews with target customers
Your own CRM or behavioral analytics
Existing syndicated reports from sources like Forrester, IDC, or Euromonitor
Skip the service if the answer already exists. If your transaction data already shows how different customer segments respond to price changes, commissioning a new pricing study is a redundant spend.
