University of Sydney - Sydney

Date - 30/04/2012

Seminar


Online advertising has considerable potential for social researchers to engage in targeted  and specialised recruitment for research activities.  This includes interview, survey and group-based activities.


This scholarly talk will bring representatives from the major online advertisers to talk with social researchers about what their products can offer.  The session will include the opportunity for a Q&A and brainstorming about innovative solutions to current and future research problems.


Confirmed speakers are:


* Mia Garlick, Communications & Public Policy Australia New Zealand, Facebook;


* Waseem Ghulam, Founder of Clixpert (Google AdWords reseller);


* Rob Flaye, Research Business Development Manager, Empowered Communications, and


* Dr Margaret Faedo, University of Sydney Ethics.


The session will importantly offer participants ample time to discuss their research, and explore ways in which online advertising may be used to build better research samples
