How We Work - Benefits
To Research Buyers
- Research buyers remain anonymous, which eliminates prejudice and aids confidentiality.
- From our network, with subscribers receiving priority, WRA sources the practitioners who offer one or more of the services you need. Basically, our reach covers all functions you could conceivably want in the research business.
- From the bidders – agencies and/or freelancers – our outsourcing management team select the most suitable service provider in terms of relevant capabilities, experience and rates.
- Clients may select several service providers for a single project, centrally coordinated by WRA’s project management team in Europe.
- An online project bulletin board allows you to communicate directly with your selected survey contributor(s) after commissioning.
- Overall coordination and quality assurance measures remain the responsibility of our Outsourcing Team in Greece, headed by a senior international market research professional.
