Quantitative research costs
Hi. You've got through to a page which isn't active yet. You can enter details of your quant project below and we will get back to you. Once this is debugged, we will provide on-line quotes and estimates for quant studies directly.
Quantitative costs are more difficult to estimate than qualitative costs as they depend on a number of assumptions about the ease with which you can get hold of people.
The following form will give you a ball-park estimate of likely costs for UK-based research projects. By its nature this form is a simplification. Please contact us for a detailed quote.
Notes
Costs are based on estimating how many interviews can be achieved per hour, or per list. This is affected by the contact type, questionnaire length, qualification level (% of respondents who qualify to be recruited into the survey) and participation rates (% agreeing to participate).
% qualifying for the survey (qualification level): This number is the % of people from your list or from non-list based samples who fit the criteria to take part in the survey. So if you want to interview men among the general population, the % qualifying would be around 50%. If you had a list of small businesses, but wanted to include only those who used video conferencing, the percentage qualifying might only be 10%.
% agreeing to participate (participation rate). This is the % of those that qualify, who then agree to take part in the survey. Consumer type surveys have higher participation rates than business surveys.
Expenses are purely travel related costs.
These costs are purely for illustration and estimation and exclude VAT.
