Pricing
Digital Hive pricing depends on:
- The length of time you want to spend with members
- Total number of respondents
- The incidence of the audience with which you want to engage (B2B, B2C, niche, general, etc.)
- The objective of the Hive itself (so we can accurately determine member incentives based on whether we are asking for them to do live groups/interviews and/or engage in virtual ethnography, etc.)
A full-service 30 min Hive of 100 members of 20%+ incidence typically starts at $25,000.
