Summary Of Our Early Findings Relevant To The Goals

  • Our initial hour of research was spent understanding how many of these niche companies exist, and then providing four that we believe fit the bill. These four survey panel firms should be looked at carefully, and if we are not on the correct track, that should clearly be communicated to us in any reply and we can pivot! All the companies selected provide B2B research with panels.
  • While there appears to be plenty of full service marketing research firms using qualitative and quantitative research that provide B2B research, not all of them seem to have panels of decision makers for custom surveys and quantitative research, so a search of each site is required to determine that.
