question
Marketing Research Proposal
answer
It iss a formal document prepared by the researcher that: - States the problem, - Specifies the research objectives, and - Details the research method proposed to accomplish the objectives. - Contains a timetable and budget
question
Problem Statement
answer
The problem statement typically identifies four factors: 1. The company, division, or principals involved; 2. The symptoms; 3. The probable causes of the symptoms; 4. The anticipated uses of the research information to be provided.
question
Research Objectives
answer
Researchers must keep in mind 4 important qualities of a research objective: 1. Precise 2. Detailed 3. Clear 4. Operational - describe the operations to be carried out in order for constructs to be measured
question
Detail the Proposed Research Method
answer
Describe the: - Data collection method - Questionnaire design - Sampling plan Detailed enough for the manager to grasp the project Includes tentative timeline and costs
question
The Marketing Research 11 Step Process
answer
1. Establish the need for marketing research 2. Define the problem 3. Establish research objectives 4. Determine research design 5. Identify information types and sources 6. Determine methods of accessing data 7. Design data collection forms 8. Determine sample plan and size 9. Collect data 10. Analyze data 11. Prepare and present the final research report
question
1. Establish the Need for Marketing Research
answer
- Research supports marketing decisions - Inadequate information raises research need - Balance research versus costs of doing it - Not all decisions need research
question
2. Define the Problem
answer
- Most important of the 11 steps If problem is defined incorrectly, all other work is wasted - May be very specific: Which ad works best? Which promotion maximizes sales gains? - May be very general, strategic What product strategy makes sense? Problems stem from two primary gaps: 1. What is supposed to happen and what did happen, and 2. What should be happening and what could be happening
question
3. Establish Research Objectives
answer
- Research objectives, when achieved, provide the information necessary to solve the problem in Step 2) - Research objectives state what the researchers must do in order to carry out the research - E.g. Seeking product improvements: * Research asks for ideal attributes * Results guide new product developments
question
4. Determine Research Design
answer
I. Exploratory Used when one is seeking insights into the general nature of a problem, the possible decision alternatives, and relevant variables II. Descriptive Used to provide an accurate snapshot of some aspect of the market environment III. Causal Used to attempt to uncover what factor(s) cause some event
question
5. Identify Information Types and Sources
answer
- Primary: information for the problem at hand - Secondary: information already collected - Always collect secondary first * Much cheaper and faster * Many paid sources, e.g. Nielsen media research * Many free, such as StatsCan - Secondary often unavailable, need primary
question
6. Determine Methods of Accessing Data
answer
- Secondary data is relatively easy to access - Primary data can be accessed through three main choices: a) Have a person ask questions b) Use computer-assisted or directed questioning c) Allow respondents to answer the questions themselves
question
Qualitative vs. Quantitative
answer
Gathering primary data more complex - Qualitative methods: focus groups, observation or online monitoring * Work well to explore a research problem - Quantitative methods: interviews, surveys * Can give statistically representative results * Online surveys can give quick results
question
7. Design Data Collection Forms
answer
If we communicate with respondents, the form often used is a questionnaire Questionnaire must be: - Be worked to meet the research objective(s) - Clear to the respondent - Without bias, and - Worded to reduce refusal to respond Observation forms are also used to document observed behaviour
question
8. Determine Sample Plan and Size
answer
Sample taken correctly can give information about the whole population - Must be defined by research objectives Type of sample plan determines representativeness. Size of sample determines accuracy
question
9. Collect Data
answer
- Errors can occur collecting data - May be intentional or otherwise - Researcher must know sources of errors - Fieldworkers may fabricate data - Validation means checking some responders
question
10. Analyze Data
answer
- Interpret information to meet objectives - Qualitative analysis seeks general patterns - Quantitative analysis seeks statistical patterns * Use statistical tools to present data in the form that satisfies the research objectives - Search engine analysis also involved
question
11.Prepare and Present the Final Research Report
answer
- Often is the only record of the research project for the client - Typically there is a written report and an oral presentation to the client and staff - Critical step, must be accurate
question
When Marketing Research is Not Needed?
answer
- Information Available - May be other ways to get information - Routine decisions often use internal data - Companies often have decision support system - If no such data available, research called for
question
Timing, Funds, Often Critical
answer
Wrong Timing: fast-moving market, no time - Competitor may launch product, wish to respond Lack of Funds: may be unaffordable - Cost to conduct research, implement recommendations Cost versus Value: is it worth it? - May be expensive, but consider value
question
Online Research Advantages
answer
- Online research can be very fast - Allows concept testing as product develops - May be less costly - Allows more supported decisions to be made * Research product, then research promotion
question
Two Sources of Problems
answer
1. Problem exists when there is a gap: - What was supposed to happen - What did happen - Unmet objective, poor product launch 2. Opportunity also involves a gap: - What did happen (or is happening) - What could have happened - Marketing opportunity = chance for profit
question
Recognizing the Problem
answer
- Control system needs to be put in place to evaluate actual performance against objectives - System is also required to identify opportunities
question
The Role of Symptoms in Problem Recognition
answer
- Managers and researchers must be careful to avoid confusing symptoms with problems - Symptoms - are changes in the level of some key monitor that measures the achievement of an objective * Gap analysis * Alert manager to a problem - Researcher has an obligation to help managers ensure they are defining the problem correctly * Regardless of whether the manager already has a definition or not - Situation Analysis - is a form of preliminary research undertaken to gather background information and data pertinent to the problem area
question
Impediments to Problem Definition
answer
- Failure to change behaviour * Efficient dealings with this supplier is not what is needed * In-depth communication is key - Differences between managers and researchers * Managers are generalists and researchers are specialists
question
Defining Problem, Establishing Research Objectives
answer
- More art than science - Consider failure to meet objectives - Researcher must understand industry - Clarify symptoms of problem - Identify likely causes - Consider possible solutions - Anticipate consequences of solution
question
Hypothesis Helpful to Define Problem
answer
Hypothesis is basis for investigation - Statement thought to be true - May be a question
question
Formulating the Marketing Research Proposal
answer
- Problem Statement: Keep it simple * Identify the firm and symptoms * Probable causes of symptoms * Anticipated use of research information - Research Objectives: information you seek * Gets agreement on information needed * Precise, detailed, clear and operational objectives are needed - Operational definition sets out a construct * Construct is abstraction, such as brand loyalty, like intention to buy, awareness are examples - Relationships of constructs useful to solve problem - Research Method: how data is collected * Details on information collection
question
The Role of Constructs
answer
- Construct - an abstract idea inferred from specific instances that are thought to be related * A mental concept that represents a real-world phenomenon * Examples: brand loyalty, satisfaction, preference, awareness * There are customary methods for defining
question
Research design
answer
Research design: is a set of advanced decisions that make up the master plan specifying the methods and procedures for collecting and analyzing the needed information.
question
Types of Research Design
answer
1. Exploratory Unstructured, informal research that is undertaken to gain background information about the general nature of the research problem. 2. Descriptive To describe and measure marketing pehnomena 3. Causal To determine causality, to make "if-then" statements.
question
Exploratory Research
answer
- Unstructured in that there is no formal set of objectives, sample plan, or questionnaire. - It is usually conducted when the researcher does not know much about the problems. - Exploratory research is usually conducted at the outset of research projects.
question
Uses of Exploratory Research
answer
- Gain background information - Define terms - Clarify problems and hypotheses - Establish research priorities
question
Exploratory Research Methods: Secondary Data Analysis
answer
Searching and interpreting existing information. Often "core" of exploratory research as costs are minimal.
question
Exploratory Research Methods: Experience Surveys
answer
- Gathering information from those thought to be knowledgeable on the issues relevant to the research problems. - Customers, front-line workers, product users, managers
question
Exploratory Research Methods: Case Analysis
answer
- Review of available information about former situations that have some similarities to the present research problem. - Even new products often have some similar characteristics of previously "new" products. Caution: beware of over-generalizing situations.
question
Exploratory Research Application Question
answer
- Blogs, twitter have become ubiquitous on the internet. - Why does studying blogs and twitter lend itself to exploratory research? YouTube (United Breaks Guitars)
question
Exploratory Research Methods: Focus Groups
answer
- Focus groups are used to generate ideas, to learn the respondents' "vocabulary," to gain some insights into basic needs and attitudes. - Focus groups are part of what is known as qualitative research.
question
Descriptive Research
answer
Descriptive research: is undertaken to describe answers to questions of who, what, where, when, and how. Descriptive research is desirable when we wish to project a study's findings to a larger population, if the study's sample is representative.
question
Classification of Descriptive Research Studies: Cross Sectional
answer
Cross-sectional studies: measure units from a sample of the population at only one point in time. - Sample surveys: are cross-sectional studies whose samples are drawn in such a way as to be representative a a specific population. These studies are usually presented with a margin of error.
question
Classification of Descriptive Research Studies: Longitudinal
answer
Longitudinal studies: repeatedly measure the same sample units of a population over time. Longitudinal studies often make use of a panel which represents sample units who have agreed to answer questions at periodic intervals. Many large research firms maintain panels of consumers.
question
Research Panel
answer
What are they? Sample units that agree to answer questions at specific intervals. There are two types of panels: 1. Continuous panels: ask panel members the same questions on each panel measurement. 2. Discontinuous panels: vary questions from one panel measurement to the next. * They are sometimes referred to as omnibus p anels ("including or covering many things or classes").
question
Discontinuous panels
answer
Discontinuous panels have the advantage of being able to access a large groups of people who have made themselves available for research. Discontinuous panels represent sources of information that may be quickly accessed for a wide variety of purposes.
question
Continuous Panels
answer
Continuous panels are used quite differently from discontinuous panels in that one may use data from continuous panels to gain insights into changes in consumers' purchases, attitudes, etc. For example, brand switching studies are used to illustrate how consumers change brands, and market-tracking studies track some variable of interest over time.
question
Panels in Canada
answer
Ipsos Canada Nielsen Consumer Research e-Rewards
question
Causal Research
answer
Causality may be thought of as understanding a phenomenon in terms of conditional statements of the form "If x, then y." Causal studies are conducted through the use of experiments.
question
Causal Research: Experiments
answer
An experiment: is defined as manipulating an independent variable to see how it affects a dependent variable, while also controlling the effects of additional extraneous variables.
question
Experiments: Independent Variable
answer
Independent variables: are those variables which the researcher has control over and wishes to manipulate. For example: level of ad expenditure; type of ad appeal; price; product features, etc.
question
Experiments:Dependent Variables
answer
Dependent variables: are those variables that we have little or no direct control over, yet we have a strong interest in. Examples would be return on investment, net profits, market share, customer satisfaction
question
Experiments:Extraneous Variables
answer
Extraneous variables: are those variables that may have some effect on a dependent variable yet are not independent variables. Extraneous variables must be controlled through proper experimental design.
question
Experimental Design
answer
Experimental design: is a procedure for devising an experimental setting such that a change in a dependent variable may be attributed solely to the change in an independent variable
question
Pretest / Posttest
answer
Pretest: refers to the measurement of the dependent variable taken prior to changing the independent variable. Posttest: refers to a measuring the dependent variable after changing the independent variable
question
Experimental Design: control and experimental group
answer
A "true" experimental design: is one that truly isolates the effects of the independent variable on the dependent variable while controlling for the effects of any extraneous variables. A control group: is a group whose subjects have not been exposed to the change in the independent variable. An experimental group: is a group that has been exposed to a change in the experimental variable.
question
Experimental Validity
answer
An experiment is valid if it has: Internal validity: which measures the extent to which the change in the dependent variable is actually due to the change in the independent variable. External validity: which refers to the extent that the relationship observed between the independent and dependent variables during the experiment is generalizable to the "real world."
question
Types of Experiments
answer
Laboratory experiments: are those in which the independent variable is manipulated and measures of the dependent variable are taken in a contrived, artificial setting for the purpose of controlling the many possible extraneous variables. Field experiments: are those in which the independent variables are manipulated and the measurements of the dependent variable are made on test units in their natural setting.
question
Test Markets
answer
Test marketing: is the phrase commonly used to indicate an experiment, study, or test that is conducted in a field setting. Uses of test markets - To test sales potential for a new product or service - To test variations in the marketing mix for a product or service
question
Types of Test Markets
answer
- Standard test markets (through the company's normal distribution channels) - Controlled test markets (outside research firms - guarantee distribution of product through prespecified types and numbers of distribution channels Electronic test markets - panel of consumers has agreed to carry scannable cards that each consumer presents when buying goods and services. Conducted in only a small number of cities in which the local reatailers have agreed to participate.) - Scanner / Electronic test markets - Simulated test markets (STMs) - Consumer vs. industrial test markets "Lead country" test markets (predictor)
question
Selecting Test Market Cities
answer
- Representativeness - Degree of isolation - Ability to control distribution and promotion
question
Qualitative Research
answer
Qualitative research involves collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data by observing what people do and say. Other qualitative research methods include depth interviews, projective techniques, observation techniques and ethnographic research.
question
Primary Versus Secondary Data
answer
Primary data: information developed or gathered by the researcher specifically for the research project at hand. Secondary data: information previously gathered by someone other than the researcher and/or for some other purpose than the research project at hand.
question
Secondary Data
answer
- Secondary data = information already there - Fast, easy access via Internet - Virtually always a part of research projects - Statistics Canada offers much data - Demographic data particularly valuable - Psychographic profiles also provided by research firms
question
Classification of Secondary Data
answer
Internal Secondary Data: are data that have been collected within the firm such as sales records, purchase requisitions, and invoices. External Secondary Data: are data that have been collected from outside the firm.
question
Internal Secondary Data: Databases
answer
Internal secondary data is used for database marketing. -Database = collection of data and information - Records on customers, suppliers, products... - Internal databases compiled by the firm - Customer relationship management uses them extensively - Data mining = seeking trends or patterns -Text mining = collect data from media Ethical, legal issues on use of these data (what are they?) - Record = is a unit of information in a database. - Field = subcomponents of information composing records.
question
Internal Sources of Secondary Data
answer
Internal Records - Accounting Data - Sales Reports - Inventory Management - Customer Database incl. customer feedback - CRM - Customer Relations Management * Service, telemarketing, call centre, customer database
question
Types of External Secondary Data
answer
Published: are sources of information prepared for public distribution; normally found in libraries and other entities such as trade organizations. Syndicated Services Data: are provided by firms that collect data in a standard format and make them available to subscribing firms -- highly specialized and not available in libraries. External databases: are databases supplied by organizations outside the firm such as online information databases such as FACTIVA and Lexis Nexis.
question
Advantages of Secondary Data
answer
Obtained quickly. Inexpensive relative to primary data. Usually available. Enhances existing primary data. May achieve the research objective.
question
Disadvantages of Secondary Data
answer
Incompatible reporting units (need postal code data and only have County data). Measurement units do not match (need per capita income and only have household income). Class definitions are not usable (need to know percent of population with income above $100k and only have $50k and over). Outdated data!
question
Evaluating Secondary Data
answer
What was the purpose of the study? Who collected the information? What information was collected? How consistent is the information with other information?
question
Locating Secondary Data Sources
answer
Identify what you already know about your topic. Develop a list of key terms and names. Begin your search using several of the largest and most readily available key business sources (see class textbook and PowerPoint below)
question
Database Search Features
answer
Boolean logic: Establishes relationships between word (Google does this automatically) AND - Both terms are retrieved OR - Either term is retrieved NOT - Eliminates records containing the term Eg: Gates NOT Bill Field searching: Author, Title, Subject Proximity operators: Allows indication how close, which order two or more words are to be positioned (Adj, Near, Same) Eg: Bill NEAR Gates Eg: Microsoft SAME legal Truncation: uses the root of the word to retrieve results Forecast: forecasting, forecasts, forecaster Nesting: indicates order of searching "Alberta" and Banff or Rocky Mountains
