Quali-Quant [-]
Quali-Quant delivered by Invoke Solutions, Inc.
Invoke provides a highly flexible real-time platform for conducting live Internet-based research sessions, which enables respondents to log onto a qualitative session and provide feedback to a live moderator, much like a focus group. Armed with a pre-developed discussion guide the moderator has a series of qualitative and quantitative questions that are used to guide the web-based qualitative experience.

The partnership between Invoke Solutions and Ciao Surveys enables us to offer a methodology for obtaining quail-quant data quickly and efficiently, as we've developed a seamless workflow process by which we can deliver high-value, qualified respondent to the scheduled session, no matter what the sample requirements.

The Ciao Surveys Omnibus is ideal for virtually all clients, and you can re-brand the omnibus, to offer it as your own product!

• Advertising agencies that wish to provide clients with concepts that have been validated prior to presentation - images can be included in the survey!
• PR agencies looking to obtain consumer data for an article or snapshot.
• Clients that wish to "test the waters" before migrating a study to the Internet.
• Companies that want to screen for usage of a specific product.
• Clients that want to obtain general consumer trend information.


Simulated Shopping [-]
Interactive shopping studies are finally affordable. Find out what consumers think at roughly one-quarter the cost of an in-person study. With simulated shopping tests, respondents can peruse magazine or book shelves, grocery or drug store aisles - and even view automotive interiors or menu boards. Ciao Surveys has also developed tools that allow respondents to pull out and rotate packages, simulate purchasing with a shopping cart feature, or zoom in and out for better viewing.

Concept and Product Testing [-]
Concepts and products can be tested online almost as fast as your client can generate them. Graphics, audiovisual and 3D imagery can be inserted into our surveys for easy appraisal by respondents. Ciao Surveys can tailor a sample cross-section to perfectly mirror your wider audience. Best of all, online concept and product testing are amazingly fast and cost-efficient compared to offline or traditional research.

Brand and Ad Tracking [-]
Tracking studies, which account for over one-quarter of overall research spending, provide your clients with meaningful benchmark data on products, services, ad campaigns, customer base and brand perceptions. By conducting tracking studies online, you can provide your client with real-time data, and analysis can begin while your study is still in the field. We can manage data collection at your chosen frequency-daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or annually. And compared to a conventional study, online tracking can save you a significant amount of time and money.

We can execute these studies online:
. Advertising tracking
. Brand tracking
. A&U tracking
. Behavioral tracking
. Longitudinal tracking

Syndicated Studies [-]
To field syndicated studies, you need reliable high-quality data. Let Ciao Surveys power your next syndicated project. We've powered some of the most high-profile syndicated work in the industry. From food and beverage through automotive studies, we have experience in working with companies that create syndicated research.

Media/Copy Testing [-]
Media Testing
Television commercials, movie trailers and long-format video presentations present a high-stakes investment for your clients in terms of media dollars. Getting consumer reaction is crucial, and time is of the essence. Ciao Surveys has technology that allows you to get this media in front of representative samples and highly targeted respondents. We use the latest Flash technology, enabling 98% of the viewers to see the segment.

Copy Testing
Understanding how consumers will react to printed materials can help your clients know if they are hitting the mark with their messaging. In an offline setting, copy testing can be done via a focus group or by sending materials to respondents. Both of these options are expensive, require a long lead time and, in the case of a mailing, can allow confidential materials to be misused. With Ciao Surveys, copy testing is a more innovative, accurate, efficient and affordable option.


Market/Segmentation Studies [-]
Ciao Surveys can help you create more targeted campaigns by developing customer segments. The sheer size and outstanding quality of our global panel enables us to obtain any sample you may need.

In-Home Usage Test (IHUT) [-]
Let our panelists carefully consider your product offering from the comfort and privacy of their homes. Our IHUT doesn't bias respondents with telephone or in-person interactions. Plus, you'll get fast return of robust feedback. Our panelists have double opted-in to participate in surveys. They are willing to complete complex tasks that include product preparations and trial information.

Conjoint and Discrete Choice [-]
Because of their complexity, these studies demand survey respondents who are highly cooperative and motivated. All Ciao Surveys panelists have double opted-in and have signed up to participate in online surveys for an extended period, making them ideal for the involved nature of conjoint studies.

Plus our team is expert at programming and fielding your study. Let us show you how to save time and money by migrating your conjoint studies online.
