Participant Screening & Recruitment
We build, filter, and run screener questionnaires. Our VAs cross-check candidate profiles to guarantee they fit your target demographic perfectly.
Strict Calendar Management
Coordinating multiple time zones seamlessly. We schedule individual and group sessions, managing back-to-back calendar allocations dynamically.

We onboard participants 10 minutes early. Our VAs test audio, video, and screen-sharing permissions so your session starts with zero technical lag.

Frequently Asked Questions
Information regarding our panel coordination pipeline.
How do you ensure a high participant show-rate?
Our VAs implement a strict multi-touch nudge system. We send automated email confirmations instantly upon approval, a personal calendar invite, an SMS check-in 24 hours prior, and a final 1-hour pre-session notification. Additionally, our VAs onboard participants 10 minutes early to handle technical issues, preserving your research time.
What specific research and coordination software do they support?
Our VAs have extensive experience managing Respondent.io, UserTesting, Qualtrics, Calendly, Typeform, Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, dScout, and custom participant databases.
How do you handle sensitive user data & NDAs?
Security is deeply integrated into our operations. Your assigned VA works within your designated secure portals or drives. They ensure all participants sign your custom NDAs and consent waivers *before* receiving session links. All Sagedoer staff sign comprehensive NDAs prior to accessing your workspace.
What happens if my assigned coordinator is out sick?
Because Sagedoer is a fully managed service, your Dedicated Project Manager instantly reassigns your screening and calendar schedule to a fully briefed internal backup VA. Your study timelines stay perfectly on track.
