What's market research? 🔍
- It's like a crystal ball 🔮 for businesses! By collecting, analyzing, and reporting data about a market, businesses can make smarter choices.
- Real-world example: Imagine if Apple had no clue what people wanted in a smartphone. No big screen, no camera, no apps? Market research saves the day by telling businesses what customers actually want.
The two big types of market research 📝
-
Primary Research (aka Field Research)
- Straight from the source! 🎤
- Methods
- Surveys 📝: Like those online quizzes, but more professional.
- Interviews 🎙️: One-on-one chats with customers.
- Focus Groups 🧠: Get a group together and pick their brains.
- Observations 👀: Just watching and noting down customer behavior.
- Real-world example: Coca-Cola wants a new flavor. They organize taste-tests (surveys) at shopping malls!
-
Secondary Research (aka Desk Research)
- Already out there, just need to dig it up! 🗂️
- Sources
- Academic Journals 📚: Those really thick books that profs love.
- Media Articles 🗞️: Newspapers, magazines, etc.
- Government Publications 🏛️: Reports, stats, and more.
- Market Analyses 🔎: Detailed studies on market trends.
- Real-world example: A startup wants to launch an eco-friendly toothbrush. They'll check media articles to see how green products are faring in the market!
Two flavors of research data 💡
- Quantitative Research: All about the numbers! 📊
- It's like counting the votes in a talent show.
- Data is numerical.
- Real-world example: McDonald’s wants to know how many customers prefer their new veggie burger over the classic one. They count the orders!
- Qualitative Research: Dive deep into opinions and feelings! 💭
- It’s like understanding why someone voted for a particular contestant in a talent show.
- Data is about consumer thoughts, feelings, and beliefs.
- Real-world example: Nike wants to know why their new sneaker design is popular. They host focus groups to understand the buzz!
