In-Person Methodologies

  • Focus Groups: bring together a small group of targeted individuals in person or online to gather perspectives on your research questions. MDRG will tailor the focus group approach to meet the needs of your research, including:

  • Traditional focus groups – gather specifically selected consumers for a moderated discussion around your business topic and questions

  • Conflict groups – using consumers who love and hate a product or brand in a guided discussion reveals drivers of the affinity and can make it easier for people to articulate their why

  • Friendship groups – a moderated conversation with friends that yields more authentic responses in a comfortable setting

  • Co-creation, immersions, or empathy workshops: Our qualitative market research services bring stakeholders and consumers together to share ideas, build client empathy, and create new concepts and prototypes

  • Ethnographies: Mobile, digital, or in person ethnography research creates an opportunity to observe respondents in real world and day to day scenarios to observe and document beliefs, behaviors, and social practices

Online & Mobile Methodologies

  • Interviews: Dig deep into personal perspectives and confidential topics with your research targets. We as a qualitative market research company do this in a comfortable and intimate moderated or unstructured conversation either in person or online.

  • Online Research Communities: Bring together a group of individuals in private web-based platforms to participate in research activities over an extended period of time. Communities can be a valuable tool for qualitative research to provide researchers with ongoing insights into participant attitudes, behaviors, and experiences. Qualitative market research companies use communities to develop new products and services, conduct longitudinal studies, explore social and cultural trends, co-create with customers, and test marketing campaigns.
