3-1 Research Design:
Delineating What Data to Collect and
How to Collect It
A research design is the basic plan that guides data
collection and analysis. It must specify:
 the type of information to be collected
(consistent with the project objectives)
 possible data sources
 the data collection procedure
(accurate, economical and timely)
3-1a Types of Research
1. exploratory research – to
improve research
2. conclusive research – to
help choose between courses
of action
3. performance-monitoring
research – feedback on
chosen course of action
Figure 3-1 Types of
research
3-1b Exploratory Research:
Determining the 'Space' of Possible
Marketing Actions
Exploratory research facilitates problem recognition and
definition. It is appropriate when the research objectives
include:
 identifying problems or opportunities
 gaining perspective on the nature of the problem
 gaining perspective on variables involved
 establishing priorities
 formulating possible courses of action
 identifying possible pitfalls in doing conclusive research
3-1c Conclusive Research: Narrowing
Down Strategic Alternatives
Conclusive research aims to narrow the field of strategic
alternatives down to one. Two types:
 Descriptive research characterizes marketing phenomena
without testing for cause-and-effect relationships. It is used
for:
 determining the frequency of certain marketing phenomena
 determining the degree of association between marketing
variables
 making predictions regarding marketing phenomena
 Causal research gathers evidence on cause-and-effect
relationships through experimentation.
3-1i Longitudinal Design and PanelBased Research
Consumer panels monitor performance continuously for
a fixed sample measured repeatedly over time
(longitudinally). Advantages of panels:
 reveal important aspects of consumer behavior that cannot be

gleaned from cross-sectional data
gather more accurate data than cross-sectional surveys
gather extensive background and geodemographic information
on participants
reduce bias through period-by-period recording of purchases
tend to cost less per data point than surveys
3-2 Data Sources for Marketing
Research Applications
Sources of marketing data:
1. respondents
 communication with respondents
 verbal response through focus group or in-depth interviews
 depends on self-reporting
 observation of respondents
 accurately records what people do and how
 omits reporting of underlying attitudes
2. analogous situations
 case histories
 simulations
3-2 Data Sources for Marketing
Research Applications (cont.)
Sources of marketing data (cont.):
3. experimentation to test cause-and-effect relationships
 direct manipulation of key independent variables and
measurement of their effects on dependent variables
 controlling other variables that might affect ability to make
valid causal inferences
4. secondary data
 data already collected for some other purpose
 internal or external
3-3 Secondary Data
 internal secondary data generated within the organization
 lower cost
 accurate
 more available
 external secondary data – generated by government or syndicated
sources

developed from data already within the organization.

Compared with newcomers, Long term
customers:
 Buy more per year
 Buy higher priced options
 Buy more often
 Are less price sensitive
 Are less costly to serve
 Are more loyal
 Have a higher lifetime value

Lifetime Value
 Net profit you will receive from the transactions with a given
customer during the time that he/she continues to buy from
you.
 Lifetime value is “Good Will”
 To compute it, you must be able to track customers from
year to year
 Main use: To evaluate strategy

Scoring Customers – RFM Analysis
 Create a customer database. Include prospects.
 Use past customer behaviors to predict future behaviors.
Using RFM to find best customers
 Recency, Frequency, Monetary (RFM) analysis can be used to
categorize customers.
 Best Customers are those who:
 Bought from you recently
 Buy from you frequently
 Spend a lot of money on your products and services.
Recency
 Recency is the time that has elapsed since the customer
made his most recent purchase.
 A customer who made his most recent purchase last month
will receive a higher recency score than a customer who
made his most recent purchase three years ago.
 Example of a Scoring system:
 1 = Customers who made a purchase more than 9 months
ago
2 = Customers who made a purchase more than 3 months
ago but fewer than 9 months ago
3 = Customers who made a purchase in the last 3 months
Frequency
 Frequency is the total number of purchases that a customer
has made within a designated period of time.
 A customer who made six purchases in the last three years
would receive a higher frequency score than a customer who
made one purchase in the last three years.
 Example of a Scoring system:
 1 = Customers who made a single purchase in the past 12
months
2 = Customers who made between two & 12 purchases in
the past year.
3 = Customers who made more than 12 purchases in the
past year.
Monetary
 Monetary is each customer's average purchase amount.
 A customer who averages a $100 purchase amount
would receive a higher monetary score than a customer
who averages a $20 purchase amount.
 Example of a Scoring system:
 1 = Customers with an average purchase amount up to
$15.
2 = Customers with an average purchase amount from
$15 to $50.
3 = Customers with an average purchase amount greater
than $50.
Calculating RFM
 Rank customers in your database based on time since last
purchase - Divide into 3 equal groups with 3 being the
33% of customers who bought most recently
 Do the same thing again for Frequency.
 Repeat the same exercise for Monetary or total dollars
spent.
 These three codes give us 27 different categories of
customers ranging from 333 – 111.

Benefits of RFM Analysis
 RFM Analysis can provide answers to the following questions:
 Can I identify my best customers?
 Who do I e-mail offers to? When do I e-mail them? How often?
 Should I promote to some customers more often than others?
 How can I tell when I’m losing a customer?
 Can I refine my marketing mix variables?
 The next step after knowing and analyzing your
customers is CLONING your customers.
Advantages of Secondary Data

 May actually provide solutions
 May provide primary research method alternatives
 May divulge potential difficulties
 May provide necessary background information
Limitations of Secondary Data

A Decision Support System
 What is a DSS?
 An interactive, personalized mapping system designed to
be initiated and controlled by decision makers
 In Marketing, it is known as MKIS (Marketing
Information Systems)
 Some basic ideas about MKIS
 Complex systems
 Deal with a variety of data sources
 Cost-benefit considerations
Characteristics of an MKIS
 Interactive
 Flexible
 Discovery oriented
 Easy to learn and use
Advantages of an MKIS
 Cost savings
 Increased understanding of the decision environment
 Better decisions
 Improved value of the information
Data Mining
 What is Data Mining?
 the process of exploration and analysis, by automatic and
semiautomatic mean, of large quantities of data in order
to discover meaningful patterns and rules.
 The technology is "data mining." Extension of statistics.
Data Mining
 Primarily used by companies with a strong ‘customer’ focus
