Qualitative Research

Qualitative research is a cognitive perspective that is well recognized and increasingly popular in the business sector.

 

Qualitative marketing research is most often used:

• To diagnose customers’ needs (conscious and unconscious) and preferences;
• To determine the level of brand awareness, including its associations;
• To verify the effectiveness and usefulness of advertising materials;
• To assess the quality of products or services already offered or being introduced in the market;
• To identify the most important features of products / services from a customers’ perspective;
• For initial or advanced customer segmentation.
