A leading manufacturer of connected home devices wanted to find out more about the way that consumers in the UK and Germany use smart devices in conjunction with each other. Some examples they were looking to explore were consumers using a smart speaker to control a home heating system or using a smartphone to monitor home security while out of the house. They requested to interview customers of their own products, and also users of competitor brands.
Our team used a free find approach to recruit over 250 promising candidates, screened each one using an online questionnaire, and chose a sample of 40. We then guided the final 40 participants through the research programme, involving tasks based on a smartphone activity and completing an online diary through an app.

You and your team did an EXCELLENT job! This was not an easy recruit and you met all the quotas, found participants who were fully qualified (and verified), and everything went super smoothly on the interview days. I appreciated how organized and methodical you were throughout this process, and how responsive and detailed your communications were.
We reached out to FieldworkHub after another firm told us they were not able to keep their commitment. Not only did Caroline respond to my email almost immediately, she picked up the phone and talked to me about my needs. Her team was super responsive and flexible, getting our work completed on time and budget. I highly recommend working with them and will absolutely be reaching out the next time I am conducting work in Europe.
