Global market research, fieldwork, and respondent recruitment

Find the people who influence real business decisions

Job title alone does not establish decision-making authority. Yamada Research recruits business professionals based on their actual responsibilities, company profile, category involvement, purchasing influence, and experience with the subject being studied.

How participants are validated

How B2B participants are validated

Seniority and involvement are easy to overclaim. Role, company fit, and purchasing influence are confirmed so the sample reflects genuine decision-makers.

Validation methods are selected according to the audience and study requirements—a C-suite study is screened differently from a technical-specialist or channel-partner study.

  1. 01Current role and seniority
  2. 02Company and industry fit
  3. 03Organisation size
  4. 04Functional responsibilities
  5. 05Purchasing influence
  6. 06Budget involvement
  7. 07Product or service familiarity
  8. 08Business email or professional-profile checks where appropriate
  9. 09Screener consistency
  10. 10Duplicate prevention
  11. 11Manual confirmation for specialised roles
