The NineteenEleven Survey Lab
Expert survey guidance for the moments that don't require a consulting engagement.
You don't need someone to take over your project.
You need someone to help you think through it.
The NineteenEleven Survey Lab is an ongoing partnership for professionals who want access to the same survey and engagement expertise behind NineteenEleven Consulting in a model designed for the way real projects actually work.
The Idea Behind the Survey Lab
Remember the Open Labs back in school?
They weren't another lecture. They were the place you went when you were stuck. You'd stop by with a question, work through a problem, and leave with a little more confidence than when you walked in.
That's the idea behind the NineteenEleven Survey Lab.
Most people who design surveys aren't survey specialists. They're planners, evaluators, communications professionals, nonprofit staff, researchers, and others who suddenly find themselves responsible for asking good questions and making decisions based on the answers.
The Survey Lab was built for those moments.
Instead of waiting until you have a full consulting project, you'll have ongoing access to practical survey support throughout the year. Drop in with a question, work through a challenge, and keep moving forward with confidence.
If This Sounds Like You...
-
You're responsible for creating surveys, but survey design isn't your primary role.
-
You wish you had someone to review a survey before it goes out the door.
-
You need practical advice without waiting weeks to start a consulting project.
-
You're looking for a trusted partner who can help you strengthen your surveys and build your confidence over time.
-
You'd feel more confident knowing an experienced survey professional is only a conversation away.
If you found yourself nodding along, you're exactly who the Survey Lab was designed for.
Where the Survey Lab Fits

Think of the Survey Lab as the bridge between figuring it out on your own and hiring a consultant for every question. It's ongoing support when you need it, with the option to scale into deeper consulting whenever your project calls for it.
