How we’ve helped our clients

Developing mobile-first surveys with Google

Digital, Mobile

As part of the Consumer Barometer study, Google engaged TNS to build a multi-wave, mobile optimised survey in 56 markets.

Insight

The study provided Google with the insights needed and best practice guidelines for creating mobile-first surveys. It also proved that shorter, smarter surveys can provide rich content.
