What innovative research techniques do we use to speak to kids and teens?

We have vast experience in applying a broad range of innovative research techniques to provide the answers your clients need for all their kids and teens marketing questions.

Online surveys

A cost effective way to conduct research but children must be engaged in order for it to be effective. By creating bespoke, child friendly surveys response rates are greatly increased. Films, games and pictures can be incorporated to stimulate interest and ensure quality data results.

Polls and Quick Polls

A great way to help you quickly find out incidences and opinions on one-off questions.

Online forums

A cost effective solution to collecting qualitative data. It allows data to be collected from the child’s home so they feel relaxed, gives them time to consider responses and the opportunity to comment further at a later date due to the longitudinal nature of online forums.

Friendship pairs and trios

Older children give the best responses when in friendship pairs or trios – keeping them comfortable and relaxed. We always carry out qualitative research in home or in a familiar environment and spend time getting to know them before asking any in-depth questions.

Vox pops and Video diaries

Vox Pops and video diaries allow young respondents to answers questions in the comfort of their own home and provide clients with a cost-effective and rich insight into young consumers lives. Video Diaries can be used to document product use as well as other aspects of young people’s everyday lives.

Eye tracking

Records eye movements whilst respondents are looking at a TV Screen or webpage. You can judge how children manage to watch more than one piece of information or content at once or how children look at brands and logos on the screen.
