Customer survey examples
We’ve created this useful tool to help you to understand the estimated cost of your consumer panel. Your actual panel price can be lower or higher dependent on your specific demographic, location and disqualification requirements (the more detailed your requirements the higher the cost).
Survey panel pricing is dependent on the size of the available pool of survey participants. For example, a general population survey just targeting people that live the UK and no other criteria will be relatively low in cost.
If you want to target people who live in the UK, in central London, aged between 40-55, that drive to work, and own an electric car, this is a much smaller pool of respondents and would be a higher cost.

*Based on average respondent cost of £2.
Responses can cost as little as £2 for basic requirements to in excess of £10 for more complex targeting. We always recommend requesting a quote.
Sample size
It’s important to remember that the smaller your sample is, the less reliable your data will be. Collecting 100 responses can be fine, but if that’s spread out across 50 countries, and the data is then subdivided by country, then that subdivided data is likely to be inaccurate.
The required number of survey responses is dependent on a range of factors, including the size of the population and how close to 50/50 the data is likely to be split. We provide a sample size calculator to help estimate your responses.
Choosing your demographic
Many of our respondent panel customers ask for highly refined details, but It’s often better to use a wider demographic panel filter, which you then further refine in the survey using a disqualification question.
This approach enables you to get survey responses faster as you can engage a wider audience and then exclude them using disqualification if they don’t meet your criteria.
Using disqualification questions
A disqualification question is used to refine the audience coming in from a panel based on the needs of the survey. If you wanted to hear from survey participants who eat at restaurants at least once a week, then this could be asked as a disqualification question.
Respondents who do not answer with the information required are not able to complete the survey. It’s important to note that disqualified respondents do not count towards the paid-for total of responses.
