An independent panel responder audit was recently carried out by one of Great Sites partners to ascertain the reliability of Great Sites members for research projects.

Both the Australian and New Zealand sites delivered honest and accurate responses to a range of questions in a survey structured to detect low quality paternalist responses.

• Australia Overall Accuracy Score: 94.86%
• New Zealand Accuracy Score: 95.50%

The survey tested;

1. Thought Consistency, opposing statements are presented for agreement/disagreement
2. Answer Consistency, asking the same question in different ways
3. Top Box responses, checking people are not just ticking the top answer
4. Speeders, checking speed of survey completion is ‘normal’

Great Sites members complete a range of quality controls during and post signup and complete a full detailed profile and interest survey.

Great Sites offers researchers a trusted panel. More Information

Through its own permission database Great Sites, with over 500,000 members we polled the attitude of Australians and New Zealanders towards the Rugby World Cup (RWC), to be held beteween 9 September and 23 October this year.

In Australia, 38% thought Australia would win the Rugby World Cup but in New Zealand this number was a massive 68%. Runner up for Australia was New Zealand, but across the Tasman members believed South Africa to be second most likely to win. Both countries support their national teams and support was around the 85% mark. More people in Australia supported New Zealand than vice versa, these could be  New Zealanders living in Australia.

Around 10% of our NZ members responded that they would attend any of the RWC games, whereas in Australia this was less than 1%. Majority of people (AU: 43%, NZ: 65%) will follow the event on TV. The newspaper was the next most popular medium, followed by online and radio.

When we asked if there should be a limit about players from one country playing for another nation, attitudes were similar: The majority (55%) believes people should only play for their own country,  with only around 20% thinking players should be allowed to switch teams.

Fieldwork was conducted between 1 – 7 July, sample size for Australia was n=665 and for New Zealand n=511. Contact us today to ask about online data collection in Australia and New Zealand. Totals do not add up to 100% because only top 5 choices are shown in graph.

A poll by Great Research showed that men were almost twice as likely to spend more than $100 on Mother’s Day as women. A total of 5424 people were surveyed nationwide between 4 and 11 May. Most respondents answered they would spend between $20 and $50 on the occasion. Older age groups were less inclined to spend money, and more likely to answer they would cook or agree with “money can’t buy love, a kiss will do just fine!”

Online Sample
Great Research sends out emails to a target group of its members (profile) and invites them to participate in the research project normally an online survey run by the market researcher. A wide range of projects can be accommodated and the exact structure of each research project is devised in consultation with the Great Research Manager. Prize draws are used as an incentive.

Monitors
These are on-going research projects run at regular sample intervals to help the market research monitor metrics relating to their client over time. Metrics can include things like brand awareness and purchase preference. Monthly monitors are typical with a small sample group of members across defined demographics responding to each sample. Normally the number and constitution of each sample is specified by the researcher. Prize draws are used as an incentive.
Pricing normally on a cost per sample and cost per interview basis with a 12 month contract.

Top Ups
Many clients have access to their own online panel however often they find it is not possible to obtain enough responses from all the demographic groups required by the study. Great Research is then called in to help complete the research project by filling in the gaps. We send research invitations to the missing demographics. A fast turnaround is available to meet the most urgent requests. Prize draws are used as an incentive.
Pricing is normally on a CPM (cost per invitation) basis.

Hosted Interviews (Surveys)
For researchers and direct clients who are interested in a complete outsourced survey, Great Research offers a hosted survey solution where an online survey is created based on questions supplied by the client and invitations sent out to a group of members. The survey results are supplied in an excel spreadsheet along with the demographic profile of each respondent. Prize draws are used as an incentive.
Pricing is normally on a cost per interview basis, question writing available on request.

“The 10 Second Survey”
Every week Great Research sends its members a topical or point of interest poll or survey. The intention is to engage with members in a light hearted but interesting way and to generate stats that can be used to generate catchy public opinion headlines and article. The results are published on the Great Research site but publishing rights are also given to sponsors who use the catchy headlines and articles as “link bait” on their own sites to support their SEO link building strategy. Link baiting is normal managed by First Rate, the search marketing agency in the Q Ltd group. (Q Ltd also owns Great Research). Prize draws are used as an incentive.
Pricing is per “10 second survey” runs for 1 week, includes email invites.

Free Sample Giveaways (IHUT or in-home usage tests)
Fast moving consumer goods or researchers that are interested in feedback from consumers on consumables send their product to our members, and ask them questions after they have used the product. Great Research is in a great position to handle these products because we know what kind of products people use (lifestyle data) and have validated addresses on our members.
