Introduction to Research Surveys

It happens in business everyday: A company plans a product launch, new web site or marketing communications without understanding their target market. They are too quick to the draw in that they…Get Ready, Fire, then Aim.

Companies often make the mistake of assuming that they know their public -- spending lots of money on product development, advertising production and media exposure and what happens? Nothing.

SEC helps remedy this situation by helping clients to…Get Ready, Aim, then Fire.
The best way to take aim is to talk to your prospects and customers and find out exactly what they are thinking.

At SEC with the assistance of our Professional Advisory Board , we use two basic information gathering methods to conduct surveys:

With these survey interventions, it's possible to target consumers and perform interviews according to:
  • Specific Demographic Groups
  • Existing Customer vs. Prospective Customer Groups
  • Specific Geographic Locations
  • Any Specific Target Audience
Surveys offer definite advantages over other research techniques. Surveys with appropriate samples are quantitative and predictable to larger populations. A typical survey project can be completed within 2-4 weeks, after proper planning.

The survey is the most practical research method available to measure awareness and determine competitive comparisons. Surveys also offer the advantage of specific insights into consumer opinions, preferences, shopping habits, and loyalty.

Surveys provide in-depth competitive strength and weakness comparisons. This analysis helps companies focus their marketing strategy in order to create a more profitable position. Finally, surveys allow you to learn what the real consumers "out there" are thinking and feeling. When the information gathered is used correctly, surveys can help marketers provide better goods and services.
