Invoke conducts large-scale online research events that combine qualitative perspectives with quantitative sample sizes. Clients participate as the research unfolds in real-time -- reviewing responses, conducting 1:1 chats and inserting on-the-fly questions. Patented technology allows Invoke to manage up to 500 participants simultaneously - including the ability to analyze the results and conduct additional probes in real-time. Participants remain engaged for up to 90 minutes. Clients know first-hand that no other methodology can match the excitement of participating in the LIVE research event as it unfolds — or of the speed and confident decision-making that Invoke enables.
Linkable Networks was founded on the premise that loyalty, not discounts or coupons, drives long-term growth for brands and retailers. Loyalty is what separates consumables from brands and consumers now expect the loyalty experience to be in context of them wherever and whenever they purchase. Since 2011, we`ve been nose-down building a scalable platform that provides brands and retailers the ability to engage, reward and incent their consumers directly and across any channel – online, mobile and in-store. We pioneered the concept of card-linked-offers and have taken it to the next level – always-on loyalty. Both our self-service and SaaS-based platforms enable the creation of actionable ads, coupons, offers, promotions, rebates and more that let you reward loyalty… not just discount a purchase. This is the future of Loyalty. And, it starts with a Link.
