- The activities of conducting focus groups or individual interviews are always performed by consultants who know how to ask and how to interpret the answers. We do not employ students who want to earn some extra money or professional researchers. We carry out and interpret our research ourselves.
- The key in qualitative research is the proper selection of respondents. We are not interested in a voice of an average customer. We want to know the expectations of the most desirable customers.
- Customers being researched never know who ordered the research. We are not interested in a plebiscite for the best customer service representative. We aim at obtaining competitive information on the fundamental, most inspiring, often very simple, customer expectations.
- We always ask one major question. The rest is clarification of what a respondent means and proper interpretation of their words.
