What Is Quantitative Market Research?
After getting the general difference between the two categories, let us discuss further why you need qualitative market research
services.
The qualitative data collection process is assessed from two different points of view: the questionnaire and the respondents.
Although respondents may not care about the classification of data they are inputting, this is important to the questionnaire. It helps to determine the method of analysis that will be used.
Qualitative research provides a depth of understanding rather than studying issues as the researcher defines them. It seeks to understand people’s experiences, emotions, actions, and interactions in the social world, whether at the individual level or with groups of people.
Furthermore, it examines how people engage with nonhuman aspects of the social world, such as technologies, materials, and specific spaces.
