Assignment description
Generally marketing managers do not perform the actual market research. However, they do frequently commission and oversee market research projects, as well as interpret data. Ultimately marketing managers make decisions on the basis of these research findings.
This assignment requires you, as the marketing management team, to consider the research process and decision making for a
satisfaction survey
of
shoppers at a supermarket in Singapore
using the gap analysis approach covered in the unit. This is a very relevant topic since quantitative evaluation of customer satisfaction and service quality is a common research activity conducted by many businesses.
NB
– Please do not actually conduct any primary market research for this assignment, rather just consider the research design and process involved in gap analysis satisfaction research from the marketing manager’s perspective.
Marketing managers select research suppliers and brief the agencies on what they expect from the research. They should also monitor the research process to try to ensure that the research is performed in an effective and efficient manner and that the data produced is reliable.
This assignment therefore requires you to set research objectives, consider the strategic role of the research and the type of information expected, as well as outline the key considerations at each stage in the research process.
The assignment will also help develop your ability to work in a group, as well as skills in desk research (library and Internet search), collating presenting and interpreting information, as well as the ESSENTIAL SKILL of accurate referencing.
