Two Nerds Talking Research with Wine #6
Sarah and I rant about making sure your agency clients are ready for research.
Even if you’re not very familiar with research, you’ve heard the terms “quantitative” and “qualitative”. What’s the real difference? These terms refer to types of data — not necessarily to research approaches. Quantitative results are those you can count, that you can tabulate. These are either numbers you can work with mathematically or text…
Clients sometimes avoid market research because they’re afraid it will “box them in” when it comes to decision-making. Nope. Research is a flare, not a cage.
There are a lot of things you can do to make sure that your research respondents have a great experience and you’re not throwing roadblocks in their way.
Little mistakes can have a big impact. Make sure you’re properly testing your surveys before fielding them. I have some suggestions about things to check you might not be considering.
