1. What is the consumer panel about?
Your views and opinions are very important to us, providing invaluable guidance on developing new food and drink products and on food issues in general.
The panel consists of many people from all walks of life who have been asked by Campden BRI to participate occasionally throughout the year in food and drink taste tests and focus groups, or to complete online surveys on food related issues.
2. Why do I have to give so much information on the registration form?
For the majority of our tests our clients specify certain recruitment criteria for each test, so we use the data you give us, plus completion of a test screener invite, to select you for the relevant test. This stops you being invited for too many tests that you would not meet the specified criteria for. If for example, the client is reformulating a product it isn´t of great value to obtain the views of consumers who never have and never will purchase the product or the product may be aimed at young children.
3. How often will I be asked to participate?
We conduct consumer tests throughout the year on a regular basis, and you could be contacted at anytime, so long as you meet the required criteria. There is no obligation to do so but our research is carried out at different times of the day and week to make it easy for panel members to take part. Of course online surveys can be completed at a time convenient to you.
4. How will I be contacted?
You will only be contacted by email. The invitation asking you to take part in a market research project will contain all the information you need to know about the research project, how to get to the Research Centres (if applicable), times and contact details.
5. What will I be asked to do as a panel member?
Panel members are asked to taste a food or drink product and complete a questionnaire or take part in a focus group at our purpose built Research Centres. Additionally panel members may be asked to complete an online survey from time to time.
