Capture ongoing and real-time high-quality insights while nurturing meaningful customer relationships
An insight community (sometimes referred to as an "insights community," a research community, market research community or research panel) is a group of consumers who’ve agreed to participate in ongoing research. Participants are recruited (Rival can help with this) into a private and secure online environment where they can provide real-time, authentic feedback regularly.
Community 2.0 from Rival Technologies and Reach3 Insights is the next wave of insight communities.

Whether they’re regular consumers or just think your brand is doing amazing things, community members are invested in the final outcome.
Since community members agree to participate, you have a group of consumers who are willing to answer questions.
Insight community features like Profile Variables make it easy to develop a deeper understanding of your members, send hyper-relevant activities, and get increasingly better feedback.
