You have an observer or two and bring people in who talk as they try to do various things. It is a sort of guided interview. With pizza, in this case.

Yeah, I worded that poorly. The simple approach above is what we did for that first test before we brought in the expert. There's definately more science to it now, and the testing has become more valuable as a result. Not having an expert on hand shouldn't stop you from doing this kind of testing, however. Even with no science at all, the testing is still valuable. I edited the post to state that a little more clearly. Hey, stop reading my blog and get back to work!

We wouldn't want to color the results, would we? Or do most people drink and play? We're up on Queen Anne, actually. Near as I can tell we're keeping the entire Queen Anne lunch-time restaurant economy afloat with our 60ish people. @Rich: As long as you spell pizza with a double s and an extra ‘u’ stuck in there somewhere, I’m sure you’ll be safe. :)
