Datadash – February 2011

Fellow Research Professionals,

Although many recent reports still emphasize the weak economy and slumping sales figures, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis reported that U.S. exports of goods and services still increased by 16.6 percent to $1.83 trillion last year.

With figures like this it is no surprise to us that clients are showing an increased need for online sample in many international markets. While interviewing consumers in markets such as the UK and Germany may be a common practice these days, what panel partners do you trust for B2B sample across the globe?

EMI has explored hundreds of sample providers from all corners of the world. We have attended international market research conferences to meet potential partners face-to-face; we have assessed and vetted various sample sources on key topics such as recruitment methods, available profiling, respondent validation, and data quality.

We focus on glocals, panels that are based locally in each country, so we can be confident respondents are recruited, incentivized, and communicated to in their native languages and styles. This allows us to provide true insight and overall cultural knowledge from on the ground in each country, and ensures our clients are getting the most relevance out of their survey results.

We help some of the largest MR, Ad, and Management Consulting firms expand their global B2B, here are a few recent examples:

  • Mexico Bar Restaurant Owners – 400 completes
  • Canadian Software DM’s – 100 completes
  • Aus/Can/JP/IT/Netherlands – Low IR ITDMs – 340 completes
  • UAE/KSA Senior Managers – 185 completes
  • South Africa IT DMs – 150 completes
  • Japan HR DMs – 200 completes

Let EMI help you increase your competitive advantage by giving you reliable access to targets and markets you have not been able to reach before.
