About feedback panels…
• “…a continuing group that responds periodically to questioning.”
• In marketing, “a rather common survey method.”
• “May exist for as little as a week, or as long as a year or more.”
• “…may be set up by telephone, mail or personal interview.”
• Groups are carefully screened to get the best persons for the problem under discussion.
-- State of the Art Marketing Research (1998), Blankenship, Breen and Dutka
