Opinium joins the PRCA's endorsed supplier programme

London, 11 May - the PRCA today announced Opinium, a leading research provider, has joined the Association's endorsed supplier programme.

James Endersby, managing director of Opinium, said “We are look forward to running a series of workshops with the PRCA to help agencies and in-house teams make best use of the services research companies can offer. Used well, research can lead the news agenda, provide insight into customers and drive engagement. To be effective, however, thought needs to go into what questions to ask and how to phrase them.”

Francis Ingham, commented “We have just launched a list of suppliers that our members recommend for different services. Opinium was recommended time and again for everything from tailored research, to questions in omnibus polls. They offer insight, flexibility and value and we are delighted to recommend them.”
