Automated Recruits
Online tools unlock research potential
If you are accustomed to managing a consumer testing database the old fashioned way – with telephone banks, Excel spreadsheets, post-it notes, homemade databases, coffee, cigarettes, overtime and blood pressure pills – there’s something you need to know.
The old way doesn't cut it any more.
The proprietary technology in Insight Counts’ Consumer Ties Toolbox automates the recruiting process, giving you unprecedented power, flexibility and cost savings.

Capability Highlights
Getting the right people in the right seats at the right time. Exactly.
Insight Counts has re-written the rules for the labor-intensive screening and scheduling portions of the product testing process, and we've done it in a way that gives you speed, flexibility, quality, and cost savings all at the same time.
- Handles simple general population recruits to highly complex segmentation calculations and managing stringent quota distributions.
- Preserves and analyzes screening information in real-time. Incidence rates are monitored from the start of a recruit.
- Psychographic & segmentation calculations performed in real time.
- Visual presentation of concepts/brands/packaging.
- Use of profile information to eliminate screening questions shortens the screener and keeps panelists from guessing the “correct” answer.
- Reduce biasing cues and learning by eliminating non-verbal voice cues & coaching, and through randomization and delayed termination points.
- Utilize family relationships and link screeners for parent/child or husband/wife studies.
- Analyzes profile, participation, and performance information to select qualified panelists to invite to a study.
- Monitors incidence and recruit progress to meter study invitations, filling the study without alienating panelists through over-inviting.
- Enables simultaneous self-screening and recruiter-led screening.
- Facilitates multi-modal screening for qualitative studies, utilizing on-line prescreening with handoff to recruiter for articulation.
- Enforce session-specific criteria, such as single-gender sessions.
- Dynamic scheduling lets panelists change or cancel appointments, opening vacated seat to others.
- Balances quotas and keeps sessions full, reminding participants about their sessions and filling in with extras if there are too many no-shows.
- Flexible and responsive to recruiting changes - add, open, or close sessions while the recruit is under way.
