Marketing Research Aaker, Kumar, Day Ninth Edition Instructor’s Presentation Slides

2 Research Design and Implementation
Chapter Four Research Design and Implementation Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

3 Research Design The detailed blueprint to guide the implementation of a research study toward the realization of its objectives Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

4 Research Design and Implementation
Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

5 Preliminary Planning Stage
Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

6 Research Design Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

7 Implementation Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

8 Types of Research Exploratory Research
Used when seeking insights into the general nature of a problem, the possible decision alternatives, and the relevant variables that need to be considered Descriptive Research Provides an accurate snapshot of some aspect of the market environment Causal Research Used when it is necessary to show that one variable causes or determines the values of other variables Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

9 Detective Funnel Many research studies use combination of all three research techniques: Exploratory techniques - generate all possible reasons for a problem Descriptive and Causal approaches - narrow the possible causes Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

10 Relationship between Data Collection Method and Category of Research
Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

11 Research Tactics and Implementation
Once the research approach has been chosen: Develop: The specifics of measurements Plan for choosing the sample Methods of analysis Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

12 Errors in Research Design
Two Types of Errors: Sampling error Non-sampling error Sampling Error Difference between a measure obtained from a sample of population and the true measure that can be obtained only from the entire population Nonsampling Error All other errors associated with a research project Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

13 Errors in Research Design (cont.)
Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

14 Budgeting the Research Project
Two approaches to budgeting: Estimate the dollar costs associated with each research activity Used for unusual or expensive projects Determine the activities to be performed in hours and apply standard cost estimates to these hours Used for routine projects or when researcher has knowledge of research activity costs Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

15 Scheduling the Research Project
Identifies personnel accountable for each task within a given time period Scheduling techniques: Critical path method (CPM) Program evaluation & review techniques (PERT) GANTT charts Graphical evaluation & review techniques (GERT) Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

16 Research Proposal Describes a plan for conducting and controlling a research project Basis for a written contract between manager and researcher Provides a vehicle for reviewing important decisions Used to choose among competing suppliers and to influence the decision to fund the proposed study Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

17 Basic Contents of a Research Proposal
Executive Summary Research purpose and objective Research design Time and Cost Estimates Appendices Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

18 Designing International Marketing Research
Greater attention to issues as: Understanding the nature and type of information sought Defining the relevant unit of analysis Formulating problems, variable specifications and categories Identifying and selecting sources of information Availability and comparability of data Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

19 Designing International Marketing Research (contd.)
Achieving equivalence of samples and measures across countries and cultures Identifying the degree of centralization of the research Coordinating research across countries Finding errors in the research design Learning the cost of conducting research in multiple countries Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

20 Issues in International Research Design
Determining information requirements Determining the unit of analysis Achieving the equivalence of construct, measurement, sample and analysis Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

21 Determining Information Requirements
Consider level and type of decision for which research is conducted Two types of decisions Strategic Tactical Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

22 Determining Information Requirements (cont.)
Global Strategic Decision Mostly made at corporate headquarters Information required is governed by overall company objectives Implies long term survival of company Deal with macro environment Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

23 Determining Information Requirements (cont.)
Tactical Decisions Concerned with micro-level implementation issues Information obtained from primary data Concerned with marketing mix strategy for country/product markets Made at functional or subsidiary level Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

24 Unit of Analysis Researcher must decide at what level the analysis is done: Global level All countries taken simultaneously Regional level Groups of countries considered homogeneous for macro environmental factors Country level Each country taken as separate unit Similar segments across countries Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

25 Construct, Measurement, Sample, and Analysis Equivalence
Construct Equivalence Deals with how both the researcher and the subjects see, understand, and code a particular phenomenon "Are we studying the same phenomenon in countries X and Y?” Measurement Equivalence Deals with the methods and procedures used by the researcher to collect and categorize essential data and information Are the phenomenon in countries X and Y measured the same way?” Sampling Equivalence "Are the samples used in countries X and Y equivalent?" Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day

26 Key Pitfalls in Conducting an International Research
Selecting a domestic research company to do your international research Rigidly standardizing methodologies across countries Interviewing in English around the world Setting inappropriate sampling requirements Lack of systematic international communication procedures Misinterpreting multi-country data across countries Not understanding international differences in conducting qualitative research Marketing Research 9th Edition Aaker, Kumar, Day
