A consumer electronics firm came to us after a previous market research project—outsourced to a full service market research agency—failed to deliver. The client was especially disappointed because, while senior researchers were involved during the sales process, the project was handed off to a less experienced team member. This left the client feeling it was a classic “bait and switch.”
Early data collection issues, including difficulty meeting quotas, weren’t escalated in a timely manner, which unnecessarily extended the fieldwork period. To make matters worse, the junior project manager lacked the business acumen to synthesize the results into clear, actionable key findings, and the client felt they had no choice but to re-write the report themselves.
For their next project, which would include both qualitative and quantitative phases, the client decided to work with a contractor instead of outsourcing to a full-service agency. We showed them how they could select a pre-vetted contractor through our Rent-a-Researcher service for a comprehensive and transparent solution—with no risk of a bait and switch.
We offered a selection of candidates skilled in end-to-end qual and quant project management, all with experience in consumer electronics. The client chose a professional who developed a detailed 150-hour project plan spread over eight weeks, ensuring a thorough and organized approach. Knowing that all of the work was being done by the individual they selected gave the client peace of mind—especially after their previous experience.
Our Rent-A-Researcher service provided reliable access to a skilled project manager, offering a stress-free, seamless experience for our client. With end-to-end management, our client could focus on other priorities, confident that they would get the consumer insights they needed on time and within budget.
