What is panel research?

Panel research is a popular way of getting a group-based overview of what customers or employees really think of your company.

When you have access to a group of people who have given their consent to taking part in different surveys or feedback investigation processes. You have a great opportunity to find out in what direction your development should be aimed. Depending on the purpose of your panel research they may be a homogenous group of people. Or a group put together to include a large variety of ages, social status, lifestyle or interests.
Target Audience

The size of the group may differ quite a lot, but that does not necessarily affect the credibility of the research results. If you have found the right people for your panel research, you are likely to get responses that will lead you onwards. Plus, if you can convince them to take part several times. You will also receive a dedicated group of people who can compare and adjust their responses over time.

Panel research can be carried out in person, but the easiest way is to do it online.
