Some of the key points from the text are that market research surveys allow companies to collect valuable information about their target market and audience at a larger scale than focus groups, which can be challenging to manage with many participants. Market surveys are considered primary research, meaning they gather data firsthand, whereas secondary research involves using existing data published by other organizations. The types of information typically collected in a survey include priorities, beliefs, experiences, preferences, desires, and needs, habits, values, and motivations of the target customers. However, demographic data, consumer spending data, household size, income, education, career, and other secondary information can usually be found in public databases or other sources, making them less suitable for market surveys. The text also discusses different types of market research surveys, including buyer persona research, sales funnel research, customer loyalty research, branding and marketing research, new products or features research, and competitor research, each with its own objectives and requirements. Additionally, the article provides tips on how to conduct a market research survey, such as finding the right audience, taking advantage of existing resources, focusing questions on a desired data type, establishing a timeline, defining a margin of error, and using automation to put survey results into action.
