Are there any additional costs to consider when working with these companies?
While they typically charge per respondent, session, or group; businesses must also account for the following when budgeting for a project:
- Respondent incentives, especially for senior decision-makers
- Panel access or proprietary databases
- Interview length, with longer interview sessions or survey questions requiring more recruitment time or higher incentives
- Incidence rate (IR) or the number of people qualified for market research; low IR results in higher costs
- International or multi-language sampling, which can range between $150,000 and over $500,000
- Advanced analytics or modeling
- Extended reporting or executive presentations
These additional costs typically add 20%–35% to the total project budget.
