Market Research for Changing Times

If you think market research is only for large corporations or those companies with a dedicated marketing team then think again!

The Market Research Service is an affordable option that brings the benefits of market research to SME’s, entrepreneurs, trade organisations and the not-for-profit sector. Whatever your experience of conducting surveys (or lack of) we believe research can help you make better decisions for marketing success, employee retention or investment choices. Understanding and monitoring the needs and requirements of customers, employees, members, visitor or donors has never been more relevant than in these challenging times. Being able to gauge changes in attitudes and preferences is pivotal for anyone wanting to ensure their services, business practices and brand message still resonate with key audiences.

Whatever your business or sector, undertaking your own market research has never been easier. If you are reading this then we are assuming you have some interest in taking forward a survey or research proposal for your own project. While market research can't stop the massive upheavals affecting different parts of the economy it will help to guide and shape your decision making. That is why we have created three different services for those keen to conduct their own research project - from professional questionnaire checking and training to a complete survey package .

Whatever your requirements we will be happy to help you achieve your research goals.
