RESEARCH REVIEW · Workflow idea

Build a useful business directory without treating a published address as permission to contact.

For work involving source-linked local business listings and relevant public contact details, check the facts and permissions before taking the next step. Prepare a limited list of business details with source links for a researcher to verify. Listings may be stale, include personal information, or have terms limiting collection and reuse. Use permitted sources, collect only details needed for a stated purpose, verify business identity, honor contact preferences, and require a responsible person to approve any record import or outreach.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Record source scope and retrieval dates

Keep the question, source links, access conditions, and review period traceable.

Set citation and verification expectations

Require direct checks for material claims and keep uncertainty visible.

Limit private information and reuse

Restrict research notes and honor participant, source, and rights-holder requirements.

Require expert review of conclusions

Do not present a forecast, ranking, or interpretation as established fact without review.

Keep exploring

Review public customer-review themes

Notice recurring feedback without reducing a customer’s experience to a sentiment label. Check the evidence, protect relevant information, and keep consequential choices with an accountable person.

Review source-linked web research

Get to the point faster while keeping every material claim traceable to its source. Check the evidence, protect relevant information, and keep consequential choices with an accountable person.

Review search-readiness page audits
