Eureka Facts News

U. S. Census Bureau Research and Development (R&D) 2014Eureka Facts has again been included as a subcontractor in a major research project for the US Census Bureau. Back in June of this year, Eureka Facts worked as part of a team of companies to help revise several questions for the American Community Survey (ACS). We completed this study by successfully recruiting and interviewing volunteers who participated in in-depth cognitive interviews throughout Maryland, Virginia, DC and Colorado.  Recruitment and cognitive interviewing was done in both Spanish and English.

Supporting the developent of a nonprofit’s growth strategic plan, EurekaFacts conducted geomarketing analysis that identifies high-potential target geographies for a growing international professional society. In the process, EurekaFacts combined survey data, demographic information and the society’s transactional data in order to identify patterns, presence, product mix by geography throughout the globe. The dual model uses high-precision datamodeling in the United States where the organization has strongest presence, as well as city and country level analysis for key areas including the EU and the Asia-Pacific region.

Assisting in strategic market planning by world geography became an easier and less risky endeavor when EurekaFacts prepared thematic maps that transform the society’s database into a powerful decision-making tool. The interactive map outputs summary charts, statistics, and tables embedded in zoomable maps for each geography. Among the sets of used measures are market presence, growth trends, and membership. Also examined were summary profiles of service usage by country, grouping publication purchases, certification preparation registration, event attendance, online self-paced education registration and membership. These maps inform intelligently targeted offers that fit the society’s usage patterns in each geography and allow for fact-based selection of host cities for events, workshops.

EurekaFacts uses its expertise in quantitative and geo-analytic methods to support the growing need of nonprofit organizations to better understand the global environment in which they operate. Tools such as the geomapping of customer data helps formulate global strategy that can be localized to the specific conditions of each market.
