Recruiting Participants

Traditional methods like 1:1 interviews are important to a product team’s toolbox. Sprig’s Recruiting prompts & screening survey templates help you with participant recruitment and scheduling tasks.

Sprig is optimized for four recruiting use cases using the following templates:

• Build a Panel - for example, you may want to build an ongoing group of interested users with who you can illicit feedback throughout the product development life cycle.
• Recruit Participants Directly - use a study to screen participants directly for a study.
• In-Product Prompt for Prototype Test - as before, but use that In-Product study to direct participants into an unmoderated Prototype Test.
• Identify Candidates for Follow-Up Screening - Perhaps your initial study has fairly broad screening criteria and you want further to whittle down perspective candidates for a specific study question.
