Getting to Know Your Customers
on a Deeper Level: New Research
Methods

Traditional research methods (such as surveys and focus
groups) ask what customers think about your service, or why
they chose your service, or what attributes they find most
attractive in your service offering. Oftentimes customers
don't know, don't want to admit, or don't have the ability to
communicate that information. Newer research methods
based on the science of the mind have been developed
to help marketers probe more deeply into customers'
needs. This session will introduce managers to several new
research methodologies (such as response time software,
and different in-depth interview techniques).
