Marketing Research Methods
Quantitative and Qualitative Approaches
«'Due to the increasing number of data sources to which companies have access, marketing and marketing research are changing fundamentally. Marketing managers and marketing researchers need to have extensive knowledge not only of traditional market research methods but also of the latest quantitative and qualitative methods. Mercedes Esteban-Bravo and Jose M. Vidal-Sanz present and summarize in this book - in a very intuitive, comprehensive, and applied way - traditional and newest methods of market research. Specifically, the authors manage to bridge the gap between traditional methods, such as regression analysis, and machine learning and artificial intelligence. Complex methods of computational statistics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence are illustrated in real-world examples. The wide range of methods and the way they are presented make this book a must for anyone interested in how companies can create value from (large) data available for various marketing purposes.' Florian Stahl, University of Mannheim»
Covering both quantitative and qualitative methods, this book examines the breadth of modern market research methods for upper level students across business schools and social science faculties. Modern and trending topics including social networks, machine learning, big data, and artificial intelligence are addressed and real world examples and case studies illustrate the application of the methods.

Covering both quantitative and qualitative methods, this book examines the breadth of modern market research methods for upper level students across business schools and social science faculties. Modern and trending topics including social networks, machine learning, big data, and artificial intelligence are addressed and real world examples and case studies illustrate the application of the methods. This text examines potential problems, such as researcher bias, and discusses effective solutions in the preparation of research reports and papers, and oral presentations. Assuming no prior knowledge of statistics or econometrics, discrete chapters offer a clear introduction to both, opening up the quantitative methods to all students. Each chapter contains rigorous academic theory, including a synthesis of the recent literature as well as key historical references, applied contextualization and recent research results, making it an excellent resource for practitioners. Online resources include extensive chapter bibliographies, lecture slides, an instructor guide and extra extension material and questions.
