- For B2B (business to business) research, e.g. surveys with experts within IT-management or opinion leaders, we can fall back on 150 especially trained, experienced and competent interviewers.
- For all kind of surveys an experienced supervisor team is responsible for the field organization, quality control and management.
- Each interviewer is substantially trained and briefed for each survey individually by this supervisor team and the project management.
Monitoring
- Our clients are more than welcome to listen undisturbed into the interviews from our supervising office to get a first impression on the interview.
- It is also possible for the client to test the questionnaire externally or listen into the interviews from an external office.
