Research Summary: Ethnographer's Notes

Notes from ethnographer after completing his observation of the study:

  • We were surprised there is no mark-up with this group on materials, I am not sure this is true in every market.
  • Participant #2 really struggled with miter cuts and had to ask for another piece of crown. I don’t think he was very experienced in undertaking this type of job.
  • All remarked the setting was very close to an actual job-site setting. Most thought the table was a luxury and being inside in bad weather for installation would not happen, which would add time to both system installations.
  • Fypon must take the fear out of using Fypon. There is a fear in using anything new, especially in a cosmetic application.
