Over the years, IRN has worked with clients of all sizes and shapes, each with different levels of knowledge of market research and the research process. These guides summarise what we have learnt about how clients commission and use market research and where they go wrong and how they get it absolutely right. These guides aim to show how to get the best value from market research.
This guide shows how to commission a market research survey and how to pull together a briefing document for a research agency. It is designed for clients of all sizes and experience levels and is useful both for clients with less experience of commissioning research and for more experienced clients who wish to review their commissioning procedures.
This Guide aims to show how to make the results from a quantitative market research survey easier to understand. Most quantitative surveys result in the presentation of tabular data. How do you make the results held on a table easier to understand and how do you prompt interest in the findings?
