The more accurate participants, the better the data, with Kim Bergman
With the continued growth of online surveys, the issue of response fraud in B2B market research grows ever greater. In fact, Technavio has projected that the growth of the global online survey market is expected to accelerate at about 9% annually between 2020 and 2024. With a wide range reported from 15% up to 50% of online survey respondents estimated to be fraudulent today, the growth of the industry could compound this problem if it is not appropriately addressed.
This month, our blog features a new format. Angie Yarbrough, Principal and Co-founder of ad agency Stratistry interviewed the President of Worldwide Market Research, Kim Bergman. You’ll learn more about their discussion, Kim’s niche in the world of market research and how she ultimately defines success.

As I sit down to focus on this blog, there are distractions everywhere. There are at least 25 unread emails in my inbox. Three un-listened-to voicemails. The dogs want to go out. Even my stomach is grumbling, starving for attention. There is literally no better time to talk about time management skills.
So, how can I stay focused and effective at running impeccable research projects despite all these challenges and daily distractions? Here, I share three tactics that I’ve found to work for me (and may work for you and your projects, too).
