A well-known brand of shampoo and conditioner for women wanted to obtain quantitative feedback on some new product fragrances that it was planning to launch in the UK. FieldworkHub was asked to recruit 200 women via street intercepts in both London and Birmingham (400 women in total).
The participants were asked to sniff two products from freshly opened bottles and one product from a Petri dish, completing a short online survey after each test. In screening potential participants for the study, we were asked to confirm that they had not eaten, smoked or applied perfume in the past hour, were not pregnant, breast-feeding or suffering from a cold or blocked nose, used shampoo and conditioner at least twice a week and did not reject the brand in question.

Overall, we couldn’t have asked for more. The recruits were exactly the profile we were hoping to get, and we got a really good mix. All respondents showed up (a rare thing these days), and all contributed meaningfully. Your team was on point with communication and support – both your project managers were extremely attentive and responsive. All in all, it’s been a great experience. Thank you so much for delivering for us.
Overall, we had such a great time with them. All of them showed up early and were very open and interested. They stayed with us for the full 4 hours, covering competitor sites, in-store walk throughs and gave a lot of feedback on product. They were able to articulate the ‘why’ behind most of their feedback which is so helpful when we can’t get this in the office!
