Quantitative studies
Scope
Custom measures for a new development or its market preparation.
Quantitative studies are designed to answer
to your particular strategy requirements.Your specific objectives might concern:
- practitioner levels of prescription
- competitor brand repertoires
- name or brand repertoires
- advertising campaign effectiveness
- market understanding
- product market testing
- institutional or corporate communication
Production
1WR co-ordination will recommend the most reliable and cost effective:- sampling options using either representative samples or
targeted sampling based upon quota or filter questions; with sometimes
eventual panel
formation
- Interviewing modes using separately or combined face to face, internet, postal or telephone
Once fieldwork is completed, tables with difference tests are produced, eventually with more sophisticated analysis.
Reporting
Reporting respects scheduling and the various stages of a study.A typical study comprises:
- a presentation of analytical findings with summary and recommendations, discussed and prepared with you.
- a report introducing the methodology, the study and its objectives, its summary and recommendations, its main analytical/question sections and appendices.
- summary tables are produced either as Excel spreadsheet tables or in Word files which highlight differences though significance tests, as well as for various splits: specific targets, "early adopters", segment groups and other socio-demographics
- listing of the open-ended question verbatim answers and their translation in English
- eventual exports and related project files
- fieldwork details and appendices
Segmentation
Quantitative samples can help determine segments of a given field of
practice or market. Depending on total
variance explanation of the total sample, an optimal number of segments
are
determined. Segments are then described and characterized.1WR uses a proprietary package with formulations that are most satisfactorily explainable (K-Means technique).
In addition, a segmentation module comprises:
- A report introducing the techniques, its summary and
recommendations, its main
segmentation descriptions
and appendices.
- Summary tables are produced either as Excel spreadsheet tables or
in Word files which include: result differences though significance
tests
help characterize segments; eventual spreadsheets to be used for
external
segment calculations
