Content

This e-book provides in-depth insights into both Qualitative and Quantitative Market Research methodologies and provides the benefits to be derived from implementing each of the methods outlined. The disadvantages of these methodologies are also outlined with an overall reflection on their merits. These insights also provide working examples and interpretations of results to enable the analyst to make recommendations to senior management about an appropriate course of action. Market Research terminology is simplified with a jargon busting chapter.
