Some answers have never been published.

So myRA goes and asks. She finds the right people, runs the calls, surveys and focus groups herself, and puts what they say straight into your study.

Built around your question

She only asks what the research can’t answer.

myRA already knows your business, the decision you need to make and what the research has found so far. So the questions start with what is missing. A study about charging sites needs to find out real grid costs and driver habits, not ask whether people like electric cars.

What we already know

Traffic, nearby chargers, target drivers and your investment budget.

What we need to ask

Grid connection quotes, lease terms and where drivers actually stop.

What the answers change

Which sites make the shortlist, what each will cost and when it pays back.

Three ways to find out

The right conversation for the question.

Get the detail behind a number, test a pattern across buyers or hear why people make a choice. myRA chooses the method around the answer your study needs.
01Get the detail

Calls & interviews

Example question

What will it really cost to open these charging sites?

What myRA does

myRA finds grid engineers, site owners and charging operators, prepares the questions and conducts the interviews. Follow-up questions explore the costs and delays that published estimates miss.

What you get

Actual connection costs, lease terms and lead times to put into the site model.

02Test the pattern

Surveys

Example question

Which drivers would use our chargers, and how often?

What myRA does

myRA recruits the drivers your study needs and runs a survey built around location, charging habits and access to home charging. Responses are analysed by group, so different needs do not disappear into an average.

What you get

Demand estimates grounded in driver behaviour, with clear differences between locations and customer groups.

03Understand the choice

Focus groups

Example question

Which of these three packs would shoppers choose, and why?

What myRA does

myRA brings together shoppers from your target group and moderates a discussion built around your brand and product. The conversation probes what they notice, what they trust and what makes them hesitate.

What you get

The reasons behind each preference, so your team knows what to keep, change or test next.

Autonomous primary research

You set the question. myRA runs the study.

myRA proposes who to ask and what it will cost. You say go, and myRA takes care of the work from recruitment through to analysis, using the same brief throughout.
  1. 01

    Find the right people

    myRA selects participants for their experience, role or buying behaviour.

  2. 02

    Prepare the questions

    The research so far shapes the survey or discussion guide.

  3. 03

    Run the research

    myRA conducts the calls, surveys or group discussions.

  4. 04

    Read the responses

    myRA compares answers, finds patterns and looks into where people disagree.

  5. 05

    Update the study

    New evidence changes the assumptions, analysis and recommendations.

Time and cost

No agencies to brief. No transcripts to sort.

Finding people, briefing an agency and turning responses into analysis can take as much effort as the research itself. myRA handles those steps in one study, so you spend less time managing the work and less money repeating it.

The usual handoffs

Brief a recruiter. Brief a research team. Write the guide. Chase the responses. Send the findings to an analyst.

With myRA

One brief carries through recruitment, questions, conversations and analysis. The findings go straight into your research.

  • Start with the context you already have.
  • Focus primary research on the gaps that matter.
  • Get findings you can use, not transcripts to sort.

Before you start

myRA finds relevant participants, prepares the survey or discussion guide, conducts the research and analyses the responses. Before the work starts, you see who myRA will ask and what it will cost.
