Speaker: Nate Bolt — Bolt | Peters
Remote research studies allow you to recruit subjects quickly, cheaply, and immediately, giving you the opportunity to observe users as they behave naturally in their own environment. Nate will discuss how to design and conduct remote research studies, top to bottom, with little more than a phone and a laptop.
Beginning in 2003, Nate led the creation of the first moderated remote user research software, Ethnio, which is being used around the world to recruit hundreds of thousands of live participants for research. He will draw on his experience overseeing hundreds of remote user research studies for Sony, Oracle, HP, Greenpeace, Electronic Arts, and others.
