Knowledge is Power
• Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes relevant and timely marketing information to system users
• 3 components to MIS– data
– computer hardware and software
– MIS experts

Marketing Information System• Internal Data System - internal system for
communication (e.g., intranet)• Marketing Intelligence - method to get
information about the environment• Marketing Research - process of collecting,
analyzing, and interpreting data about customers, competitors, and the business environment to improve marketing effectiveness

Marketing Research Data
• Syndicated research reports– collected and compiled by secondary data firms
on a regular basis and sold
• Custom research reports– primary data collected to provide answers to
specific questions

Step 1: Define the Problem
What is the management decision?
• Specify the research objectives – “translate” the management decision into research objectives
• Identify the consumer population of interest
• Place the problem in an environmental context – what are the underlying assumptions?

Step 2: Determine the Design
• Can the information be acquired from existing data?– If so, secondary data sources will be utilized– If not, primary research will be necessary

Exploratory Research
Generally provides qualitative data:
Does it exist, what is it?
• May take several forms– interviews– focus groups– case studies– Ethnography
![Page 11: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Descriptive Research• Generally provides quantitative data:
How big is the market?• Utilizes large sample of participants as base• Designs
– Cross-sectional design involves the systematic collection of quantitative information from one or more samples of respondents at one point in time
– Longitudinal design tracks the responses of the same sample of respondents over time
![Page 12: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Causal Research
• Attempts to understand cause-and-effect relationships
• Factors that might cause a change are independent variables while the variables that are affected are dependent variables
• Experimental design allows researchers to control possible explanations for the effect
![Page 13: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Step 3: Choose the Method for Collecting Primary Data
• Communication– Mail questionnaires– Telephone interviews– Face-to-face interviews– Online questionnaires
• Observation– Personal– Mechanical
![Page 14: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mail Questionnaires
• Advantages– Respondents feel
anonymous
– Low cost
– Good for ongoing research
• Disadvantages– Slow return speed
– Low response rates typical
– Inflexible questionnaire
– Length of survey is limited
![Page 15: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Telephone Interviews
• Advantages– Fast

– Interviewer bias possible
– Time requirements are high
![Page 17: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Online Questionnaires
• Advantages– Instant data collection
– Flexible question patterns
– Low cost
– No interviewer bias
– Access regardless of geographic location
• Disadvantages– Unclear who is
responding
– No assurance of honesty
– Limited questionnaire length

![Page 18: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Observation
• Personal observation– traffic analysis– recording how products are used
• Unobtrusive measures– pantry checks– garbage search
• Mechanical observation– people meters
![Page 19: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Data Quality
• Validity - extent to which the research measures what it was intended to measure
• Reliability - extent to which research measurement techniques are free of errors
• Representativeness - extent to which consumers in the study are similar to the target of interest
![Page 20: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Step 4: Design the Sample
• Probability samples– each member of the population has an equal and known
chance of being included in the sample
– allows for inferences to be made about the population
• Non-probability samples– unequal chance of being included in the sample
– limits inferences to the population
![Page 21: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Probability Samples
• Simple random sample
• Systematic random sample
• Stratified sample
![Page 22: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Non-Probability Samples
• Convenience sample
• Quota sample
![Page 23: Knowledge is Power Marketing Information System (MIS) determines what information managers need and then gathers, sorts, analyzes, stores, and distributes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042702/56649d785503460f94a5bae1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Step 5: Collect the Data
• Implementation phase• Special issues in data collection
– Gathering Data in Foreign Countries• Challenges due to access, coverage, and language
– Single Source Data• Data on purchasing behavior and advertising
exposure are measured for members of a consumer panel using television meters, retail scanners, and split-cable technology
