...organisation uses marketing research to contribute to the development of its marketing plane. A definition of marketing research: "Marketing research is the systematic and objective search for, and analysis of, information relevant to the identification and solution of any problem in the field of marketing." The key words in this definition are; systematic, objective and analysis. Marketing research seeks to set about its task in a systematic and objective fashion.

...Brochure More information from http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/2329821/ PESTLE Analysis of China 2012 Description: China’s economy has experienced a strong annual GDP growth rate of 10% during the last five years. It is expected to continue its growth momentum and surpass the US in GDP by 2020. A high rate of savings, abundant and increasingly skilled labor, healthy export business, and potential urban growth is likely to drive the Chinese economy to sustained growth during 2012- 2017. Lucintel, a leading global management consulting and market research firm, performed a Political, Economical, Sociological, Technological, Legal, and Environmental (PESTLE) analysis of China and presents its findings in “PESTLE Analysis of China 2012.” As indicated in the study, foreign direct investment (FDI) has proven to be the driving force for China’s ongoing economic growth. The large and expanding market of China is attracting leading multinationals, encouraging local innovators, allowing domestic manufacturers to produce lowcost products, and permitting formation of industry clusters and business groups. Successive governments’ focus on reform processes and simplification of China’s tax law and FDI procedures makes China an ideal destination for investment and growth. The report also indicates that large-scale production diminishes production costs, leading to less-expensive exports. China’s strong presence as an export platform supports income and employment growth in the economy...

...– Describe the different types of market research (P1) In this assignment, I will be producing a report explaining and describing the different types of marketing research. What is market research? Market research is the process of collecting valuable information to help find out if there is a potential market for a new product or service.

Primary research Primary research consists of a collection of original primary data. There are advantages and disadvantages of primary research. There are various forms of primary research, which are: Observations Observations are a method of primary research where companies monitor customer behaviour. This can be in the form of a ‘mystery shopper’ in a store. Experimentation Experimentations are a method of primary research where an element of the marketing mix is changed. The results are then analysed. Surveys Face-to-face surveys; postal surveys; telephone surveys and email surveys are all different types of surveys used as methods of carrying out primary research.

...Most every organization will benefit from even the most elementary market research. If it does not provide new information, it will confirm what is known. Market research is the process of gaining information about your market. Preferably, this is specific information about your target market and the key factors that influence their buying decisions. Market research can be casual and limited in scope and, although it may not be “statistically significant” research, it can still be valuable. The value and “degree of fit” may be based on the quality, cost, or the amount of time to acquire the information using these practical market research tools.Determine what form of market research is going to work best for you. Make that decision based on the value you will receive, versus the time and other resources you need to invest to gain access to that information. Market research is often confused with an elaborate process conducted by a third party that takes a tremendous amount of time and money. It may be important to take a different perspective on what market research is and how it is conducted. Primary Market Research Primary market research is research that you conduct yourself, rather than information that you find already published. Primary market research may result from you having direct contact with your customers or the public. This may be through the following types of information gathering. • Focus groups gather a small group of people together for a discussion with...
