Mission

Our mission is to enable everyone to do more good.

We are doing this by inviting everyday people to donate a few minutes of their day to support their chosen cause from the comfort of home. Many of us want to do more good, we just don’t know how to fit it into our busy lives. Until now.

Vision

Our vision is for a world where everyone can support their cause irrespective of physical, cultural and financial barriers.

We are working towards this by helping not-for-profits leverage the demand for online market research respondents and the passion of their crowd.

Drivers

The global market research industry is worth $50 billion.

Everyone has a mobile phone or connected device.

There are billions of people looking to do more good.

Tom Mitchell-Taverner

Founder & CEO

I started Opinionate based on an intimate knowledge of the market research industry, a passion for innovation, a decade of senior management and an idea which I hope will change the world.

I have an interest in archaeology, a passion for native bush foods, a dream that Australia will come to terms with and celebrate its first nations history and a love of felt-tipped pens on tracing paper (I used to be an Architect). I spend hours talking to my girls about the wonders of the world (as well as its injustices) and tell them everyday that anything is possible.

I am a graduate and member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (GAICD), member Australian Market and Social Research Society (AMSRS) and an member of the Fundraising Institute of Australia (FIA).
