When LA Inc., The Convention and Visitors Bureau, needs outside research support and an objective third party perspective, we have repeatedly turned to Lauren Schlau Consulting. From project management resulting in defensible economic impact analyses to program assessments and marketing strategies, Lauren and her staff always hit the target. To the Bureau, LSC is not just a vendor, but also a partnership that has lasted over ten years.

LSC does outstanding work. What sets them apart from the usual research and analysis company is that LSC can take reams of data and put it in a form that is useful, relevant and easily comprehensible by the layperson. Anyone in this field can produce lengthy “dust-collecting” reports. LSC gives you information in a format that you can distribute with confidence, knowing that it will be understood and used.

We selected Lauren Schlau Consulting through a comprehensive state-wide RFP process when the Santa Cruz County Conference and Visitors Council needed to conduct a tourism conversion study for the Santa Cruz community,. The firm’s experience, reputation and a strong connection with the tourism industry, made LSC the obvious choice. The firm was professional, responsive and adhered to a rigorous schedule to produce a comprehensive study. Ms. Schlau eloquently articulated the relevance of the study results in two large community presentations and to our City Council. LSC is a pleasure to work with due to their expertise, client dedication and obvious affection for the hospitality and tourism industry.
