MRSI - Identifying opportunity through custom research

Census Balancer

Online data quality is top of mind for marketing researchers today. One of the key issues is the representativeness of online samples and the potential for misleading research results. This potential not only damages the credibility of marketing research, but can also lead to flawed and costly business decisions.

MRSI's proprietary Census Balancer® provides the solution. We believe a validated sampling plan is the foundation required for quality marketing research. This technique produces a demographically representative online sample which allows you to eliminate concerns about skewed data and base your critical business decisions on consistent, accurate research results.

Our Census Balancer technique balances survey invitations at the access/click-through level and over-invites lower response groups to achieve a representative online sample. It's the survey before the survey in that the technique asks demographic questions as part of a pre-survey before the actual screener and survey is conducted. Questions typically include gender, age, race, ethnicity, education, and region.

MRSI's Census Balancer provides online research samples with a demographic profile that's comparable to U.S. Census data or other known demographic targets. To achieve these balanced online samples, access to each survey is adjusted as needed to maintain the balance required for key demographic groups.

The Census Balancer technique allows you to achieve accurate, consistent online research results within and across pre-recruited online panels. Plus, this approach provides results that are more comparable to RDD telephone research than other sample balancing techniques.
