Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to provide access to research databases?
Yes. While our VAs are experts at utilizing open-source intelligence and public data (Google, government census sites, public company filings), if you require data from paywalled platforms like Statista, IBISWorld, or PitchBook, you will need to provision access for your VA.
Can the VA conduct primary research (like calling local businesses)?
Our Market Research VAs primarily focus on secondary (desk) research, data compilation, and quantitative analysis. If you require a VA to make outbound calls (e.g., mystery shopping or phone surveys), please discuss this with your Project Manager so we can assign a VA with the appropriate language skills and phone demeanor.
How do you ensure the data collected is accurate?
Your Dedicated Project Manager implements strict QA checks. VAs are required to cite the primary source for all data points collected. The PM reviews the formatted deliverables against your initial brief to ensure the research is logically sound before it reaches your desk.
What happens if my assigned VA is out sick?
Because Sagedoer is a fully managed service, your Dedicated Project Manager instantly reassigns your research project to a fully-briefed internal backup VA. Your intelligence gathering continues without any disruption to your deadlines.
