We wanted to say a huge thanks for your help with our study! It was very smooth and easy to work with you and the respondents you recruited gave really amazing reflective responses that helped shape our insights and learnings on the project.
Ethnographic OBB: communications app users, Brazil
The client brief
Our client wanted to understand how WhatsApp and Facebook users in Brazil perceive the brands they are communicating with on both platforms. An example of this might be on WhatsApp, where a user might see a notification directing them to use the app in a certain way and assume the WhatsApp brand is reaching out to them to take action.
FieldworkHub deliver
FieldworkHub was asked to find around 80 WhatsApp and Facebook users to participate in an online bulletin board over the course of two weeks. With the assistance of our partners, we validated respondents’ social media usage and Facebook profiles so that our client could be sure of gaining relevant insights from respondents. Our services also included providing a Portuguese speaking moderator to engage with and encourage respondents to complete tasks given.
We used FieldworkHub recently and now they’re our recruiter of choice. The briefing process is very simple and they’re very easy to deal with. Best of all is the ease and transparency of being able to check the recruits and their profiles so you have a good insight into each person.
