Strategic Decisions Deserve More Than Guesswork
Every sponsorship, campaign, and customer experience, from iconic sporting events like Super Bowls and Olympic Games to festivals like Rolling Loud-III and Festival of Lights in Southern California, Red Bull global tours, and innovative polling with Polling-EDGE on political and voting issues, hinges on understanding what truly drives your audience.

How We See Your Market Differently
Most research looks backward. At SMRI, we look forward.
We don’t just capture opinions, we uncover patterns and motivations that guide better decisions. It’s not about what happened last season, but about what will keep fans engaged for seasons to come.
Turning Insights Into Action
From on-site surveys at major sporting events to advanced data analytics, we provide insights that brands can actually use. Whether it’s shaping sponsorship strategy, evaluating media impact, or measuring ROI, we deliver the answers you need.
Here are just a few of the ways we help organizations get there:
Introducing Survey-EDGE
A smarter, more engaging way to capture consumer insights.
For decades, surveys have been static, impersonal, and easy to ignore. That’s why SMRI created Survey-EDGE, a platform that transforms feedback into real conversations. With voice, video, geo-mapping, and interactive design, Survey-EDGE delivers completion rates up to 35 times higher than traditional online surveys.
Survey-EDGE will soon be featured on Advancements hosted by Ted Danson. Stay tuned to see how it is reshaping the future of survey technology, and check back here soon to watch it.
