How does it work?
On the top of each PPM there is a motion detector and a light. As long as you're wearing your PPM, the light will be green, and as long as the light is green, your PPM is working.
To participate in our Meter Panel, all you have to do is wear the PPM provided to you. Please note, it's essential that you always wear your own PPM rather than one belonging to another member of your household.
In order for us to accurately capture your radio and TV habits, we ask that you wear your PPM as you go about your daily activities from the moment you wake up. That means wearing it at home, in the car, at work, at school, out shopping, etc.
At the end of each day, simply place your PPM into the portable charger provided and it will be ready to record your media exposure the next day.
Getting started
If you don't have it yet, you should soon be receiving a box containing your PPM equipment. Look at the accompanying
Quick Start Guide for step-by-step instructions on how to set up the device for each household member. After charging your PPM for 12 hours, you'll be ready to go. Please remember to wear it all day and charge it at night.
Once set-up is complete, we suggest all participants review the
How to Use Your Personal Meter Guide enclosed as it contains valuable information about being a meter panel member.
In your equipment box, you'll find a single
Household Questionnaire, as well as one
Panel Member Questionnaire for each member of your household. You'll also find a Certificate of Appreciation enclosed. This document outlines the confidentiality agreement between you and Numeris. Kindly return all completed questionnaires along with the Certificate of Appreciation in the postage-paid envelope provided.
Within a few days of receiving your equipment, a member of our Regional Panel Administration team will call to welcome you and let you know about the many incentives Numeris offers to participants, such as reward points, anniversary gifts and weekly/monthly gift and cash draws – because we want your experience with Numeris to be rewarding.
And one last thing; you'll find a token of appreciation inside your equipment box. Please enjoy with our thanks!
