Delivering the mindset of the American consumer

For decades, Simmons' National Consumer Study brought consumer targets to life with vivid and complete profiles, including lifestyles, attitudes, brand preferences and media use. The high quality, nationally representative study was the result of a comprehensive, continuously fielded survey of approximately 25,000 U.S. adults, including over 7,500 English- and Spanish-speaking Hispanics.

Released quarterly, the National Consumer Study utilized a patented, single-frame sample design.
