Recruiting, Research and Support

Consulting the consumer

Our motto, Consult the Consumer best describes our mission and our value proposition. Finding the right consumers to consult — that's where we really shine.

 

Orman Guidance Research®, Inc. has a carefully structured process that secures the representation that clients require in their targeted segments.

 

We have a separate procedure that eradicates "professional" respondents. During editing and respondent validation, each screener is reviewed by the Project Supervisor, Database Manager and Data-Entry personnel to ensure that respondents meet their qualifications.

Recruiting with care

We critically challenge our work so that our clients have a high confidence level as we progress to fulfillment of the requirements. Orman Guidance Research® takes the uncertainty out of recruiting by consistently utilizing this thorough process for screening, validating and confirming. Show rates are beyond impressive. The caliber of respondent we provide underscores the care and attention to detail that we emphasize on every project entrusted us.
