4 Myths You Must Clear Before Market Research Surveys
Many market researcher (and organisations who employ them)
had faced a notion “ It’s often said that the only bad question is the one you
didn’t ask “. If right questions are being asked by researchers then they can
help companies to identify and address concerns by helping them to create new
metrics. It will also enable them to corroborate the mettle of their marketing
procedures and products.
If you are going for survey research you should
self-introspect your understanding of surveys and how much they can contribute
in overall development of various aspects that lead to company’s growth.
Some fallacies that you must clear up before going for
surveys as means for carrying out market research:
Myth 1-More Data is better:
The focus should be not in gathering more data through more
questions being asked to high number of respondents. To get good data right
questions need to be asked to right respondents. Spending time to screen the
audience and asking them relevant questions will enable you to get quality
insights. Asking too many questions related to many topics can make the
respondents frustrated and abandon the survey or they will not give the survey
with full interest and provide false information which makes the whole process
a big failure. So quality is more important than quantity.
Myth 2-Respondents should not be anonyms:
Demographic information about respondents provides
appropriate data to put responses into the right prospective. It also helps in
determining that if inferences about rest of the population can be drawn out or
not. You don’t need individual names rather a general sense about the
respondents is adequate to get results to take appropriate actions by the
companies.
Myth 3-One mode fits all:
“One size fits all” does not work in the market research
surveys like most things in life. An online survey would not give optimum
results if your respondents are elderly people, not having access to a computer
and internet or don’t know the correct way to use the device they are using to
fill out the survey. If researchers are using paper survey then they are more
likely to reach less number of respondents or that are not the right audience
for a particular survey. You may not get the same results from the same survey
if you are targeting respondents with same demographics in developed and
developing countries. Instead the surveys should be designed to reach the right
target respondents to make the efforts worthwhile.
Myth 4-Everyone can easily do it:
In the modern era, there are a number of available options
to carry out market research surveys yourself. Practically it is not that easy
as it seems. There are many market research professionals who still make
mistakes even after years of experience. If you want appropriate results and
ROI then you should reach out to market research companies who have an
expertise in carrying out market research through surveys. This will give you
optimum results so that you can take correct decisions for your company or business
and flourish on the path of development and grow exponentially.
