Steps in the Research Process • Identifying the research problem • Developing a research plan • Collecting data • Analyzing data • Presenting the research findings
Identifying the Research Process • What information do I need? • Existing Markets – customer needs already being served by one or more companies; information may be readily available • Potential Markets • Latent market – an undiscovered market; demand would be there if product was there • Incipient market – market will emerge as macro environmental trends continue • Why do I need this information?
Developing A Research Plan • Do we need quantitative or qualitative data? • What is the information worth (versus what will it cost to collect)? • What will it cost if we don’t get the information? • What can be gained from the information?
Collecting Data • Secondary Data • Statistical Abstract of the United States • Statistical Yearbook of the United Nations • World Factbook • The Economist • The Financial Times • Syndicated studies • And much more
Collecting Data (cont.) • Primary Data Collection Methods • Survey research • Interviews • Consumer panels • Observation • Focus groups

Special Considerations for Surveys • Benefits: • Data collection from a large sample • Both quantitative and qualitative data possible • Issues • Subjects may respond with social desirability • Translation may be difficult • Use back and parallel translations to ensure accuracy and validity
Presenting the Findings • Report must clearly address problem identified in Step 1 • Include a memo or executive summary of the key findings along with main report • Ringkasantemuanpenelitian: jawabanterhadapmasalahygdiajukan • Hasilharusdinyatakandgnjelasdandapatdigunakansebagaidasarbagimanajeruntukbertindak. • Hindariresearch jargondananalisiskuantitatif yang kompleks.
Sampling • A sample is a selected subset of a population that is representative of the entire population. • Probability samples • Non-probability samples
Analyzing Data • Demand Pattern Analysis • Income Elasticity Measurements • Market Estimation by Analogy • Time-series displacement • Comparative Analysis • Cluster Analysis
