Capabilities
Cirque’s team can help craft samples using panels representative of certain geographic areas, or target more nuanced populations of interest, such as faith-based populations or consumers of selected products. Whether using survey panels or custom populations, Cirque Analytics tailors surveys to your needs, ensuring scalability and relevance, enhancing the reliability of your results.
Cirque’s survey design experience spans a wide variety of applications, including marketing strategies, consumer preferences, class actions, antitrust, intellectual property, and labor disputes. This versatility ensures alignment of survey methodology with your specific goals, while delivering a product that withstands opposing critiques. The team is also skilled at identifying shortcomings in poorly designed questionnaires, flawed sampling, inadequate testing, and deficient implementation and can demonstrate the impact of these defects on the reliability and validity of estimates generate from such surveys.
Cirque’s surveys meet rigorous standards for legal settings, and our experts have delivered testimony in federal and state courts.
Beyond survey design, Cirque offers robust survey data analysis, including statistical modeling and econometrics, to transform raw survey data into meaningful insights, resulting in a comprehensive, reliable work product.
