What is SkoposPDQ™?

Skopos PDQ™ is a bespoke, quick-turn research solution designed for when you can’t wait a week (or more) for answers. Unlike omnibus surveys, PDQ is built entirely around your questions and your audience, with a streamlined process that keeps things quick, simple and robust.

Use it when you need to:
- Sense-check an idea or message before it goes live
- Get a quick read on customer attitudes
- Put real numbers behind a hunch for stakeholders
- Sanity-check a decision when time is tight

FAQs

What if I need more than 10 questions?
Purple Circled Plus Icon
No problem. PDQ starts at a minimum of 10 questions, but we can extend the survey if needed. We’ll quote the additional cost up front so there are no surprises.
Can I use a different audience, not UK nationally representative?
Purple Circled Plus Icon
Yes. PDQ is flexible on targeting — we can focus on specific segments or niche groups. Pricing may change depending on incidence and reach, but we’ll confirm this when you share your brief.
Is same-day delivery always guaranteed?
Purple Circled Plus Icon
Same-day results apply when the questionnaire and audience are agreed and signed off by 11 a.m. UK time, and the audience is reasonably easy to reach. If timing looks tight, we’ll tell you straight away and agree what’s realistic.
What do I actually receive at the end of the day?
Purple Circled Plus Icon
You’ll receive a topline summary of the results and the underlying data (e.g. Excel/tables). If you prefer a short slide deck or extra commentary, we can build that in too.
Can PDQ evolve into a bigger piece of work later?
Purple Circled Plus Icon
Absolutely. Many clients use PDQ as a quick, low-friction way to get started — and then build out a fuller programme once they’ve seen the initial findings.
