UX Research, customer base vs user base

I’m interested in seeing if anyone has problems reaching their entire user base? I work for a TV/ Video Entertainment company. When recruiting for UX Research studies, I can access a customer list of account holders and easily gain access to them, but I have to keep in mind that not all of our users are primary account holders. In other words-one account can be for an entire family, but the information we have on that account is only for the one paying the bills. I want to be able to recruit to the larger user base.

What are some different ways you have used to recruit for user research studies & participants?

Great question. Are there ways that you could message your emails to the lists you have that ensure you’re appealing to the right person in the household?

What if you sent a questionnaire to the whole customer base but within that questionnaire you could frame it to weed out who the real users of that account is/are. You can then segment out your customer list
