Austin, TX, October 12, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Kinesis Survey Technologies LLC (Kinesis), the industry leader for future-proof market research software solutions, announces the recent appointment of Kinesis President Leslie Townsend to the TrueSample® Quality Council.

TrueSample, a division of SurveyMonkey® - the world’s largest survey company, is a patent-pending data quality solution that ensures each survey respondent is real, unique and engaged. TrueSample established the Quality Council to drive data quality standards and best practices, and to enable the collaboration of key thought leaders across the research industry. Since Kinesis provides the leading end-to-end survey and panel management software platform, Ms. Townsend’s appointment to the Quality Council adds significant insight from the market research solution development perspective.

“Leslie Townsend’s vast survey research experience and solution development leadership make her an ideal addition to the TrueSample Quality Council,” said Mark Menig, Head of Global Strategic Business Development for TrueSample. “Kinesis was among the first survey solutions to integrate the TrueSample offering, and we are pleased to now further extend our partnership.”

Kinesis integrated TrueSample into the Kinesis platform in 2010 in order to provide additional respondent validation options to its clients. TrueSample combines identity verification, de-duplication and engagement modeling into one real-time application that removes fake, duplicate and unengaged respondents from research samples. Kinesis offers the highly advanced market research platform that includes Kinesis Survey™, Kinesis Panel™ and Kinesis Community™. All Kinesis solutions support seamless multimode (desktop, tablet and mobile) project execution.

“The integration with TrueSample provides users across the Kinesis product suite rapid and easy access to tools that ensure high data integrity, whether they are building an ongoing panel or running a single survey project,” said Townsend. “Effective respondent validation tools are vital to our clients and across the broader market research community. I applaud TrueSample’s fervent commitment to online research quality, and I am proud to join its Quality Council.”

The TrueSample Quality Council convenes twice per year to share information and experiences related to data quality and to collectively define the product direction for TrueSample. Ms. Townsend will be among the featured presenters at the next Quality Council meeting. More information about the TrueSample Quality Council is available at: http://truesample.com/qc.
