What was the research problem?

Our client had a research requirement which needed us to target audiences from Nigeria, especially Abuja and Lagos. The target group had to be of medium to high income, with an equal split in gender. This requirement made it a challenging quota category because the majority of the online population is male and getting an equal split in gender was a difficult task.

What were the challenges?

• Considering the complication associated with penetrating the target audience, we suggested the targets be from the general population, aged over 18 years, and they be screened by using a set of masked questions to ensure that the objective of the study is not made apparent during the screening stage itself.

• Conducting online studies in this market is difficult, primarily because of the low internet penetration and the nascent stage online communities.

How did Borderless Access solve the problem?

Aggressive sampling was exercised to guarantee the desired deadline. In addition to usual sampling, more female respondents were invited to the survey. This was done using the referral system, available to our panel members. We were able to meet the demand of 200 completes and secure good responses.

Additionally, focused sampling and new recruitments were simultaneously carried out to satisfy all quota requirements.

With strict quality parameters, we needed good responses from our panelists. With limited cost variable, we worked out incentives to keep panelists motivated to take the survey as well as maintain his/her engagement levels throughout. Thus, meeting all quality targets.

Outcome

The efforts not only met the expectations of managing the required completes on time but also opened doors to many other business opportunities with the client. The client was very impressed with our comprehensive research approach.
