Responding to the demands of the new Internet economy, we recruit respondents from around the globe for our online focus groups.

Online focus groups are independent of geography. Generally, in-person groups are held at field research facilities located in major cities. These facilities have one-way mirrors for observation, as well as other amenities. We also conduct sessions in hotel rooms, convention centers, or on client premises if logistics so dictate. In addition, we have access to research facilities that are set up for remote video in the event that you or your clients wish to view the interviews real-time but cannot be physically present. Sessions are audiotaped and/or videotaped.

Our service is tailored to your particular requirements. As needed, we will:

• Identify the target market/respondents
• Assist you in deciding between traditional or online focus groups
• Develop the phone-recruiting screener
• Manage the field-facility and recruiting
• Develop the moderator's interview guide
• Moderate the focus groups (whether online focus groups or traditional)
• Manage all props, demos, and special equipment
• Manage food arrangements for both clients and respondents
• Provide audiotaping and/or videotaping
• Produce an executive summary, PowerPoint presentation, or full-report with rich selection of respondent quotes
• Produce a narrated, analytic video report with selected footage from the videotaped sessions
• Provide printed session transcripts (especially in the case of online focus groups)

Finally, a special service we offer to ad agencies and other organizations with their own research staff is a day-long training in the techniques of online focus groups and other types of qualitative research.

We are eager to discuss your particular needs (whether online focus groups or other) and tailor our services to meet them. Call us today!
