Anglia Cancer Network

"DJS did an excellent job for us within a very tight timescale at one of the most challenging times of the year – Christmas. When we asked if they could increase the scope of the survey they responded positively without hesitation, even although I suspect it wasn’t that easy to organise. We had good feedback and were pleased with the presentation of the report. I would definitely consider using them again and have already mentioned them to colleagues in other organisations".

Shepherds Friendly Society

"The research undertaken by DJS has provided us with a far better insight into the attitudes and aspirations of our members. Although it confirmed certain assumptions we had about our members, the research also highlighted one or two unexpected findings, and as such will enable us to improve the relationship we have with our members.

However, the benefit of any research like this is only as good as the response you make to it. In combining its research skills with the technical knowledge of Nathan Dickman, DJS provided us with valuable feedback not only on how to improve the look and feel of our sites, but also how to increase the accessibility of those sites."

Unity Trust Bank

" We wanted our research to form part of our future strategy development as well as review our customer service. A brief was written and put out to tender with 3 experienced market research companies.

Not only were DJS Research the first to respond, but you asked questions in order to clarify our exact requirements and thus your response stood out by its differentiation and ability to stretch our initial thoughts.

DJS Research was particularly competitive in terms of cost even though the research included face-to-face interviews which would involved travelling all over the country at your own expense rather than an additional cost to us.

Unity Trust Bank would highly recommend DJS to any company that wants to move their company forward and reach its customers. You and your team are friendly and approachable and consistently professional in your interactions with both the company and our customers.

You have been with us every step of the way from spending time in our Customer Service area to presenting your findings. Looking back at our previous research and suppliers, it is fair to say that we definitely made the right choice and look forward to working with you again. "

Profiling Research

" We commissioned DJS Research to conduct a market research project concentrating on a specific borough of London. The deliverables from this were to provide our firm with the raw data collected from the survey in a number of file formats.

Due to the circumstances in which this project arose, the turn around time from start to finish was particularly short and very little lead time was given for DJS to prepare prior to beginning the survey.

DJS delivered comprehensive accurate results prior to the deadline we set, were flexible in their approach to our business relationship and provided excellent customer service throughout. I would like to thank you for all your hard work and look forward to working with you again in the future. "

Throughout he showed good grasp of methodology, including sophisticated sampling, questionnaire design and data analysis.

Danny is one of those rare individuals who combines solid research skills with good interpersonal and presentation skills. A good team player who is fun to work with, Danny thinks things through carefully, giving clients confidence - you know your research is in safe hands "

"After receiving many proposals from different market research companies, DJS Research was by far the most detailed and very competitive on price. The staff are professional, enthusiastic and very approachable, whether its first thing in the morning or last thing at night someone was always on hand to discuss any issues and help solve them there and then. My project was on a very short time frame, however, DJS was still able to complete a quality project with professional set of results well within the time constraints I had given them. Above all I am very happy with the service I received and would recommend DJS Research to any other company, big or small".

" Working with Danny was a joy from start to finish. He took care to make sure that the consultation asked the questions we needed to ask; was energetic and enthusiastic throughout the process; didn't make a single promise that he couldn't keep and delivered the feedback, which was quite challenging for some of us, in a sensitive but professional way.

We are already planning our next piece of work with DJS Research. "

4S Information Systems Ltd "This was our first 'big' market research project and so we were a bit skeptical of how much benefit it would be, but it has given us the way ahead and identified some new opportunities.

Research Manager, Major UK Utility Company

"We've worked on a number of projects over some time and the benefits have been clearly evident. Their ability to understand our business and apply the learning from one study to the next has been superb. In fairness, you would hope that all research agencies do this, but it's not always the case. I would certainly recommend using them.

I have also consistently been able to put them in front of my internal clients and not worry about the reaction. For a research manager, this reassurance is hugely valuable as it takes some of the pressure away from me. I have on many occasions been able to consult and bounce ideas around, sometimes without a specific project in mind. Sometimes this leads to work but not always. Regardless of the outcome, they have always been keen to help."
