OpinionBus is an omnibus survey conducted each month in several African countries, including Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, and South Africa. It merges various clients' survey questions into a single questionnaire to reduce costs. Clients can ask between 1-10 questions and only pay for their portion, while also receiving free demographic data. The omnibus survey interviews 1,000 people in each country and provides results to clients within the first week of the following month. It offers a low-cost way for companies to access national audiences and run surveys.

3. How?
With a normal survey approach, clients run their
projects independently and get their data at standard
operational costs. These will be significantly reduced
if the project would be converted to an omnibus
approach.
