  • Data quality is not a filter, it is a discipline — and most of the industry has been optimizing for the wrong one; the filter mindset treats quality as something to clean after collection, while the discipline mindset builds the conditions where good data is the norm from before the survey goes live. — Ep. 49
  • When evaluating vendors, the answer to refuse is 'trust us' — transparency is becoming the buying criterion; vendors who can show their work will win, and those who cannot should be pressed until they can. — Ep. 49
  • The single question brand-side researchers should ask their vendors is 'walk me through your data quality framework' — not panel books, cleaning rates, or source blends, but the framework itself; if the vendor is not being proactive and driven by a strong point of view, they are scrubbing data, and that is a band-aid that is no longer enough. — Ep. 49
