We also think creatively to find new and innovative ways to reach respondents with the questions you need answered. If it can be done, our technical staff will make sure we get it done!
We make every effort to achieve the highest possible response rate. All sample numbers receive multiple calls at different times and on different days, including weekends where appropriate. Plus we offer a toll-free 800 number for busy respondents to call us back at their convenience.
Our highly-trained interviewing staff is closely monitored using our remote and on-site monitoring system to spot and eradicate any potential problems. Field supervisors monitor interviewing throughout a project while each interviewer's work is checked through daily evaluations of all of their dialings, including completions and refusals.
Real quality is ensured through extensive training, briefings, and supervision. Training is done using both the Market Research Association program and our in-house training system.
