Worldwide Proprietary Internet Panels
Panels are groups of people who have agreed to participate in surveys. Decision Analyst is a world leader in the development and use of Internet-based panels. Panels are the best way to conduct Internet-based research because panels provide high-quality data since the participants are willing, interested, and motivated (they have agreed to do it, and they get paid to complete each survey). Panels circumvent the antispamming bias of the Internet and allow us to pull balanced, representative samples because we have geographic and demographic data on each member. Decision Analyst's major Internet panels are:

American Consumer Opinion®

A panel of over 7 million consumers in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Latin America, and Asia who can be reached via the Internet. It is one of the largest consumer panels in the world, with significant membership in over 150 countries.

Over 100,000 individuals are added each month. Consumers can sign up to become a member in one of ten languages: English, Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese, Italian, French, German, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese or Japanese. Complete demographic profiles are maintained for each member household, including:

  • Age and Gender
  • Family Composition
  • Education
  • Marital Status
  • Ethnic Background
  • Type of Dwelling
  • Household Income

Contractor Advisory Board®

An international Internet panel of over 20,000 building contractors and subcontractors, spanning all segments of the construction industry, including residential, light commercial, heavy commercial, and industrial construction. It includes contractors working in new construction as well as remodeling and retrofit. All types of contractors are members (such as general contractors, HVAC/R, electrical, tile and masonry, plumbing, landscape, roofing, drywall, painting, pool, fencing, excavation, insulation, framing, glass, remodeling, siding, fire protection, environmental controls, and security). Information maintained for each contractor includes:

Executive Advisory Board®

A global panel of 100,000 senior officers of major corporations, including members of boards of directors, chairmen, presidents, managing directors, and other high-level executives. This extremely difficult-to-reach audience is much more accessible via the Internet, since busy executives can take a survey whenever it's convenient for them, even if it's midnight or Sunday afternoon. Key information maintained for each executive includes:

  • Age and Gender
  • Number of Employees

  • Annual Sales in Dollars
  • Type of Industry

Imaginators®

Decision Analyst’s online creativity panel is comprised of everyday people who have been tested for high levels of “idea centric creativity”–the ability to generate large numbers of highly original ideas for new products and services. To date, more than 200,000 people have been tested using our proprietary testing systems. Each panelist ranks in the top 4% of the general population in terms of creative abilities. As a result, Imaginators® ideas are often breakthrough in nature.
