Telephone surveys in the automotive aftermarket – across Europe.

Workshops, dealers and buyers in the automotive sector are among our long-standing core target groups. Every year we conduct around 10,000 interviews in this segment – in over 15 European countries.

Target groups we know

Workshop owners, purchasing managers and mechanics – after countless telephone surveys in the sector our interviewers know this target group inside out. That shows in conversation quality and response rates.

We reach workshops of all sizes: from independent single-garage businesses to branded workshops and multi-site organisations.

Independent garages and workshop owners
Branded workshops and service managers
Automotive parts dealers and wholesalers

Mechanics and service technicians
Fleet operators and fleet managers

Typical study content

These are the study types we regularly conduct – product-specific, brand-specific or cross-market.

Brand awareness

Aided and unaided brand awareness measurement among workshops and dealers – for brands in filters, brakes, chassis, steering, exhausts and other aftermarket categories.

Product awareness in the aftermarket

Awareness and usage of specific product lines among service technicians and buyers – differentiated by brand, product category and market.

Purchasing behaviour & supplier preferences

Which suppliers are used? Which channels are used for purchasing? What factors are decisive in supplier selection?

Customer satisfaction surveys

Satisfaction of workshops and dealers with suppliers, products and services – nationally and internationally, in small and large samples.

Tracking studies

Annual or semi-annual repeat surveys to measure the development of awareness and satisfaction scores across multiple waves.

Multi-country studies in Europe

Simultaneous surveys in multiple European markets – with central management, uniform methodology and comparable data across all countries.

Aftermarket categories we know well

Our interviewers are familiar with the common product categories in the automotive aftermarket – technical vocabulary and conversation management with technical target groups are no problem.
