AMC Global and OpinionRoute Launch Weekly Study

We have launched a new, ongoing syndicated study produced in partnership with OpinionRoute, a leader in insights process management. The project launched this week with an examination of how company response to the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted consumer feelings toward the company. The study findings are designed to help clients and industry leaders navigate quickly changing consumer behavior during the crisis. 

New results will be released on Thursdays based on the study’s weekly polling of U.S. based general population primary purchasers.
