Five Moderating Tips To Improve Your Online Qual
Are you optimizing your transition from in-person qualitative methodologies to online solutions?
 
Now that we're "going virtual" in our approaches to gain insights from respondents, we're using state-of-the-art platforms that make it easier to engage, evaluate stimulus, and chat in virtual 'back rooms.'  It's almost -- if not quite -- like being there in person.
 
To maximize the virtual experience process and outcomes for our clients and respondents, we've modified our approach in five key ways. We are sharing them HERE.
Once Upon a Time....
...we all had more help in writing our research reports.  Now that many of you may be doing more with less, think about using storytelling to create more engagement in reporting your market research findings. Stories are easier to understand, remember and retain! And Information that is more easily understood and remembered are more likely to inspire action and meaningful impact.

Latest Thought Leadership
Telemedicine for Behavioral Health - Is It Here to Stay?
Telemedicine for Behavioral Health is no longer just for a select few pioneers. While Zeldis Research has been exploring telehealth usage and attitudes for more than a year, its increased adoption during the pandemic has been much in the news.  So we launched our own thought leadership research to help you understand attitudes and perceptions of providers and consumers of virtual and teletherapy methods. Individual interviews were conducted to better understand the experience of these users with, and reactions to, the movement toward a virtual tele-therapy approach.

The interviews have just been completed and the analysis will be released in August for free, as individual webinars to the research community.

How have the financial services and insurance industries been affected by COVID-19?  A new Thought Leadership project from Zeldis Research examines how agents, brokers, and advisors view the impact of the pandemic on their business-related activities. Topics include:

  • How they think their industry may change over time as a result of COVID-19 (e.g., product, risk tolerance, coverage differences and potential future offerings, and telehealth)
  • Their impressions of the impacts on their business and their financial projections in the short-, medium-, and long-term
