Not Waving But Drowning

 The Annual Survey of Market Research Professionals 2008 reveals two key factors : 

1.     67.1 % of respondents believe that inviting people too frequently to take part in surveys leads to poor completion rates

2.     57% believe that improved targeting of surveys would produce better participation numbers.

Industry professionals believe these results have led to poor response rates in research surveys. In other words, respondents are drowning in questionnaire invitations and losing the will to complete the surveys.

There are many different ways to reach the target market with a wide range of  different mediums available - CAPI, CATI plus the further evolution of panels and web based research (CAWI). But there is only one way to make sure that you keep your respondents fresh and volunteering to respond – MARSC.
