Panel of Industry Thought Leaders, to be announced
Approximately one billion online surveys were taken by consumers across the globe in the last year. And over $4 billion dollars will be spent by companies this year alone on their online market research. Yet many thought leaders are raising questions about sample quality:
- Were all these surveys taken by real people?
- Are professional survey respondents skewing my data?
- Can I trust research from an online panel?
These are fair questions - and until today, there have been only incomplete answers.
Join John Ouren, Executive Vice President and General Manager of panels and communities at MarketTools, as he moderates a roundtable discussion with Brad Bortner, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research and other industry thought leaders as they discuss how the validation and verification technologies used in banking and direct marketing are applied to increase the confidence and predictability of online market research.
Attend this webinar and learn from the experts as they clearly answer fundamental questions about the quality of sample, including:
- How to increase the level of confidence in your online market research
- Why your choice of sample provider can impact your findings
- How to directly and measurably improve online sample quality
Who Should attend:
Marketing and research professionals responsible for:
- Marketing
- Market Research
- Internet Marketing

Implementing online communities for corporations is a buzz-worthy trend…
but how can community significantly impact your business’ bottom line?
REVOLUTIONIZE Your Perception of Community.
“If you build it they will come.” With today’s countless choices for media engagement, organizations must move beyond this philosophy by creating a social media strategy that gives customers a reason to come…and to come back.
DRIVE Community Involvement & Create CONSUMER ADVOCATES.
Successful companies effectively converse with their community through blogs, social networks, forums, and countless other forms of media. Microsoft and Lego teach you to inspire and encourage consumer dialogue while adapting business strategies to meet evolving customer needs.
Leverage Community for BUSINESS GAINS.
Consumers are both the message and the medium. It is critical to understand the conversations that are happening about your company, your products and your brand. Dell, eBay, and Yahoo! share with you how they leverage this feedback to improve upon current practices and make smarter, more profitable business decisions.
RETHINK Traditional Corporate STRUCTURE & CULTURE
You cannot have an effective community strategy if you’re working with an inflexible corporate structure. For a community to thrive, companies must throw traditional business models out the window. Charlene Li at Forrester Research and Chris Leonard of Global Spec, Inc. show you how to make communities work for your organization, without cultivating internal chaos.
Remember, It’s a TEAM EFFORT & It ALL STARTS HERE
An effective community should enhance ALL business functions- from sales and marketing, to product innovation, to technology, to customer service. Bring your entire team to be a part of building real connections.

PRESENTERS:
Dr. Patricia Zigarmi, Founding Associate, The Ken Blanchard Companies
One of the primary reasons why many change efforts fail is because leaders do not consider change from a recipient's perspective. In any change effort, leaders need to address the concerns that people have when they are asked to change. Unless you take the time to meet individual concerns, you will not be able to generate and maintain the momentum necessary for the change to be successful.
In this webinar you will learn that there are six predictable and sequential concerns that people have when they are asked to change.
- Information Concerns: What is the change? Why is it needed?
- Personal Concerns: How will the change impact me personally? Will I win or lose?
- Implementation Concerns: What do I do first? How do I manage all of the details?
- Impact Concerns: Is the effort worth it? Is the change making a difference?
- Collaboration Concerns: Who else should be involved? How do we spread the word?
- Refinement Concerns: How can we make the change even better?
By anticipating these six stages of concern ahead of time, leaders can diagnose and respond to individuals' predictable concerns with change and, therefore, reduce resistance and build momentum for moving ahead.
Don't miss this opportunity to explore how leaders can initiate and foster change by addressing the six predictable stages of concern that will arise. You will learn how to reduce resistance, gain buy-in, and create an action plan for successfully leading a change effort within your organization.
