the future of respondent engagement: motivating respondents to participate in market research
DESCRIPTION
While digital technologies have fundamentally changed the way companies can capture the voice of the customer, the challenge is to understand the underlying motivation for consumers to participate in market research in the digital age. Given this changing environment, Delvinia wanted to understand how to motivate Canadians to share their opinions. We partnered with Ryerson University and secured funding from the Canadian Federal Economic Development Agency to undertake a study using AskingCanadians, our proprietary online research community, to fundamentally understand the motivational drivers to engage consumers to participate in research. Delvinia CEO Adam Froman worked with Dr. Mary Foster, Professor of Marketing at the Ted Rogers School of Management, to look at why people participate in market research from the participant’s perspective. In this presentation, Adam shares the findings of this groundbreaking research and examples of how this knowledge can be applied to increase participation rates.TRANSCRIPT

AskingCanadians
1. Consumers don’t want to participate in market research.
2. Quantitative research will be dead in 10 years.
3. Methodological rigour is becoming irrelevant.
4. Easy access to new technologies allows digital marketers to replace market researchers.
The Myths
1. Social Revolution - Technology applications and tools have approached the adoption rates where consumers now control the conversation
2. Need for Speed – the time to conduct credible market research is not keeping up to the pace of the changing digital consumer
3. Pricing Pressures – With so many low-cost alternatives and short timelines, value of market research is being challenged
What is really driving this change
But what hasn’t changed is…We need to get messages out to consumers andwe need to collect feedback to derive insights.
