    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    Data Source:

    Any marketing research requires data collection to arrive at the solution of the problem.

    Data collection always starts with secondary data. Hence, in a way we can say that: Any

    marketing research starts with secondary data.

    Data can be broadly classified into two categories:

    1)Primary Data

    2)Secondary Data

    A)Primary Data:

    It can be defined as the data which are collected at first hand either by the researcher or by

    someone else especially for the purpose of the study. It is important as it helps us in arriving

    at the accurate solution to the problem of marketing research.

    B)Secondary Data:

    Any data which have been gathered earlier for some other purpose are secondary data in the

    hands of the marketing researcher. When sufficient secondary data are av

    considerable time and money may be saved. It helps us in better understanding of the

    problem. It can be collected internally or externally. Internal Data is one which is collected

    from within the organization.

    In our project we were broadly concentrated on the Primary data as it was a live project and

    our analysis was going to result in a huge financial investment into an institute. Wegathered all possible data first hand by interviewing our target respondents personally on

    one to one basis.

  • 8/7/2019 hypothesis_testing_MR_REPORT adjusted MARKTING

    12/69

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    As far as secondary data is concerned we used website of APTECH institute for purpose of

    knowing about no. of courses, branches at APTECH INSTITUTE, which helped us in

    deciding over the quota for sampling and exact target etc.

    Research approach:

    Methods of Primary Data collection:

    1. OBSERVATION

    2. SURVEY

    SURVEY RESEARCH

    Anything from a short paper & pencil feedback form to an in depth one to one

    interview is called as survey research. Survey can be divided into two broad

    categories:

    The Questionnaire

    The Interview

    While considering the type of survey, we need to consider the costs, physical

    resources, and time required to conduct the survey.

    Choice of particular survey method mainly based on:-

    1. Cost

    2. Time

    3. Physical resources

    13/69

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    Since each survey is different, there are no hard and fast rules for determining its

    size. The deciding factors in the scale of the survey operations are time, cost,

    operational constraints and the desired precision of the results. Also, consider what

    should be the acceptable level of error in the sample. If there is a lot of variability

    in the population, the sample size will need to be bigger to obtain the specified

    level of reliability.

    Methods of Data Collection:-

    1) Person Administered2) Computer-Administered

    3) Self-Administered

    PERSON-TO-PERSON: In this method interviewer reads questions, either face-

    to-face or over the telephone, to the respondent and record his or her answers.

    Different ways of this method are as follows: -

    1)Face-to-face:Involves trained interviewers visiting people to collect questionnairedata. It is a good approach for ensuring a high response rate to a sample survey or census,

    and trained interviewers gather better quality data.

    Telephone:involves trained interviewers phoning people to collect questionnaire data.

    This method is quicker and less expensive than face-to-face interviewing. However, only

    people with telephones can be interviewed, and the respondent can end the interview very

    easily.

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    Research Instruments:

    The most common research instrument is the questionnaire. Keep these tips in mind when

    designing your market research questionnaire.

    Keep it simple.

    Include instructions for answering all questions included on the survey.

    Begin the survey with general questions and move towards more specific

    questions.

    Keep each question brief.

    If the questionnaire is completed by the respondent and not by an interviewer

    or survey staff member, remember to design a questionnaire that is graphically

    pleasing and easy to read.

    Remember to pre-test the questionnaire. Before taking the survey to the

    printer, ask a few people-such as regular customers, colleagues, friends or employees-to

    complete the survey. Ask them for feedback on the survey's style, simplicity and their

    perception of its purpose.

    Mix the form of the questions. Use scales, rankings, open-ended questions and

    closed-ended questions for different sections of the questionnaire. The "form" or way a

    question is asked may influence the answer given. Basically, there are two question

    forms: closed-end questions and open-end questions.

    Close-end questions - Respondents choose from possible answers included on

    the questionnaire. Types of close-end questions include:

    Multiple choice questions which offer respondents the ability to answer "yes"

    or "no" or choose from a list of several answer choices.

  • 8/7/2019 hypothesis_testing_MR_REPORT adjusted MARKTING

    15/69

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    Scales refer to questions that ask respondents to rank their answers or measure

    their answer at a particular point on a scale.

    Open-end questions - Respondents answer questions in their own words.

    Completely unstructured questions allow respondents to answer any way they

    choose. Types of open-end questions include:

    Word association questions ask respondents to state the first word that comes

    to mind when a particular word is mentioned.

    Sentence, story or picture completion questions ask respondents to complete

    partial sentences, stories or pictures in their own words.

    Questionnaire of our project was open & close ended. We provided respondent

    with range of options to answer. As we were evaluating of awareness of IT &

    APTECH, there were questions regarding perception of awareness of IT &

    APTECH in mind of students before deciding to take admission in APTECH. We

    also measured the section wise satisfaction level of APTECH student with

    APTECH institute. Since we used mainly closed ended questions it helped us inanalysis of data.

    Sampling Plan:

    In our daily life we reach to conclusions by describing the characteristics of a

    large number of items of a phenomenon usually referred as (population) based on

    an analysis of a limited number of items from that phenomenon (called sample).The major reasons for sampling are as follows:

    Decision makers will have stipulated time to make decisions. If the consider

    the whole population, they cannot come to consensus within the stipulated

    time.

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    The cost of gathering information is highly important.

    The accuracy can be maintained if we take small sample of a population.

    The following are the managerial objectives of sampling:

    The data can be collected from the desired section omitting others.

    Sufficient accuracy that can be obtained by considering the sample.

    Research resources can be efficiently used.

    By sampling also sometimes we get unimportant data. They are as follows:

    1. Data produced is of high quality but not applicable to the problem definition.

    2. The data produced is of stable result but becomes obsolete till it is produced.

    Type of Sampling Procedures:

    There are two types of sampling procedures.

    1. Probability Sampling Methods

    2. Non probability Sampling Methods

    Much of the sampling in marketing research is non-probability in nature. That is,

    samples are selected on the basis of the judgment of the investigator, convenience,

    or by some other non random process rather than by the use of a table of random

    numbers or some other randomizing device.

    Non probability samples offer neither ofthese features. In non probability samples

    offer neither of these features. In non probability sampling one must rely on the

    expertise of the person taking the sample, whereas in probability sampling theresults are independent of the investigator.

    1. Non probability sampling procedures:

    Quota Sampling:

  • 8/7/2019 hypothesis_testing_MR_REPORT adjusted MARKTING

    17/69

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    In quota sampling the sizes of various subclasses in the population are first

    estimated from some outside source, such as from Bureau of the Census Data.

    Since the interviewers judgment is relied upon to select actual respondents within

    each quota, many sources of selection bias are potentially present.

    For example there are 400 completed interviews. To the extent possible, the

    sample should be as follows:

    Area: 25 30% from JAMSHED Nagar.

    70 75% from CHANDIGAR Road.

    Sex: 60% Males

    40% Females. Etc.

    Judgment Sampling (Purposive Sampling):

    The key assumption underlying this type of sampling is that, with sound judgment

    or expertise and an appropriate strategy, one can carefully and consciously choose

    the elements to be included in the sample so that samples can be developed that

    are suitable for ones needs.

    Convenience Sampling:

    In convenience sampling selection, the sampler chooses the sampling units on the

    basis of convenience or accessibility. This form of sample selection is

    commonly used in the man on the street form of interviewing and, at times,

    associates may be interviewed, and, at times associates may be interviewed simply

    because they are accessible.

    Snowball Sampling:

    In snowball sampling, initial sampling units are selected using probab

    methods, but additional units are then obtained from information supplied by the

    initial units (referrals).

    2. Probability sampling procedures:

    Simple Random Sampling:

    A simple random sample is one in which each sample element has a known and

    equal probability of selection, and each possible sample of n elements has a

    known and equal probability of being the sample actually.

    Systematic Sampling:

    A systematic sample is one which each sample element has a known and equal

    probability of selection. The permissible samples of size n that arepossible to be

    drawn have a known and equal probability of selection, while the remaining

    samples of size n have a probability of zero of being selected.

    Stratified Sampling:

    A stratified random sample is one in which a simple random sample is taken from

    each stratum of interest in the population. Within each stratum a separate random

    sample is selected.

    Two basic varieties of stratified samples are:

    Proportionate stratified sampling: The sample that is drawn from each stratum

    is made proportionate in size to the relative size of that stratum in the total

    population.

    Disproportionate stratified sampling: It is one departs from the preceding type

    of proportionality by taking other circumstances, such as the relative size of

    stratum variances, into account.

    The greater the within stratum homogeneity and the amongst

    heterogeneity, the more efficient is stratified sampling.

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    Cluster Sampling:

    The researcher is here interested to study characteristics of some elementary element inthe population. He first divides population into blocks (cities, towns etc). Each block

    consists of cluster of respondents.

    Area Sampling:

    As the name suggests, area sampling pertains to primary sampling of

    geographical areas. There are two different approaches for this:

    Based on Number of samples

    Fixed Sampling

    Here the size of sample is already calculated and then the research is done.

    Sequential Sampling

    Here sample size is not determined before hand. If it is observed that the

    sample size is not adequate the new population is added to sample size.

    Based on Logic

    Traditional Methods

    These methods are very easy to implement and can be used for any market

    research. But generally they avoid some sampling errors.

    Bayesian Inferential Method

    This method is very logical and very systematic but it is very complicated

    therefore it becomes very difficult for understanding and use.

    In our project of measuring AWARENESS OF IT & APTECH we have divided

    the whole census into different samples. The complete population is subdivided

    using quota sampling method. We selected 75%MBA students at different

    universities & remaining 25% at different colleges or coaching center. These are

    20/69

    MARKET RESEARCH 2010

    divided on basis of specific requirement of data; hence we had decided the quota

    on the basis of present at different students from all over Karachi, as APTECH has

    its presence in many countries in the world. In our case we have handled the quota

    of different university students in Karachi.

    Contact method:

    Contact method can be of many types like, one can contact resp

    telephonically, personally by random selection, one can contact the person from

    maintained database or direct meeting is also by a prior appointment.

    In our project we have followed direct contact method in which we had met

    respondent and asked for his/her response on our research.
