PRIMARY  RESEARCH: FOCUS GROUPS

"Understanding consumers is about creating explanations that can be inspired by data but equally well come from experience and intuition."                                                                     
 --
 Bobby J. Calder, Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University

WHY CONDUCT FOCUS GROUPS? DESIGN
Qualitative research complements quantitative studies by providing a rich data set of why consumers adopt a particular technology.

Parks Associates' focus groups deliver timely consumer data that provides clients with:

  • Critical information at specific targeted consumer segments to answer the questions of why and how consumers adopt particular technologies;
  • The design of marketing messages; and
  • Early feedback on potential product concepts and designs.

Questions or requests?

For specific questions regarding Focus Groups and their design, please contact Kurt Scherf

Our focus groups are designed, moderated, and analyzed by Kurt Scherf, a Certified Focus Group Director (CFGD).

Focus Group Format
Groups include 8-12 people, with a moderator
Clients have direct input in developing the Moderator's Guide

Focus Group Analysis
Qualitative research provides context to the numbers:  how people use the technology, how does it fit into their lives, and what marketing messages appeal to them.

These data also help operationalize important concepts such as "computer use," "high-end entertainment households," and "early adopters."
