gLobaLocaL™ data collection: Local Surveys - Worldwide ©
gLobaLocaL™ is our trademarked model for conducting telephone surveys locally in native dialects - worldwide.
When we take on a gLobaLocaL™ data collection project, our PowerMind© members located worldwide are presented the opportunity to conduct phone surveys in their native language from home. We also present the opportunity to our PowerCentre© call centres worldwide at the same time (if you run one and would like to be included register here).
Once appropriate resources are identified such that targets will be met within time and budget, we manage and oversee the process of administering the surveys and deliver the data on completion. Experienced in-language PowerMind© members are assigned supervisory duty and every project has up to 15% of interviews validated at random.
Want to run your own network of distributed workers conduct the calls remotely? Sure - we also provide VoIP lines starting at $9/- monthly. Each line gets a US number, $0.01/minute in US/Canada competitive long distance rates, and more (more on VoIP here)
And if you'd like to leverage global crowds independently, try assigning a few Fulfillments (surveys) directly here.

Tidbits around 'data collection':
CATI, CAPI, CAWI, CAMI - what an alphabet soup!
The common thread? Each is a methodology to capture data - by inquiry. Questionnaires (surveys) administered by telephone, in-person, via the web, and via mobile devices.
In a very broad sense the chronological order - in-person, telephone, internet, mobile has been the path of general evolution of data collection in the market research world. Until 'course social media played a role. And now, there is passive data collection via social media channels, interactive data collection via gamification, via virtual online communities, and more recently crowd-sourcing.
mrJunction has been at the forefront of the crowd-sourced data collection movement - back when crowd-sourcing was barely a term, we launched in 2008 with the trademarked gLobaLocaL™ CATI model that enabled telephone surveys to be administered worldwide - locally in native dialect; at a fraction of what traditional global data collection cost back then given our crowd-sourcing model underpinnings.
Imitation is the best form of flattery - and we are humbled by the number of traditional agencies that have adopted a similar distributed, remote, multi-lingual, on-demand global interviewing model in years since.
gLobaLocaL™ evolved to full-service crowd-sourcing with myriad other options and we introduced multiple crowd-sourcing services under mrClub. The sprouting service remains alive - and salient features above remain the core value-proposition to gLobaLocaL™ market research.
