What is Qualitative Research?

Here at Cogent, our mission is to provide data-driven solutions and strategies that help our clients make more informative decisions regarding their business. In order to achieve this we spend a lot of time doing Qualitative Research. What is Qualitative research you might ask?!

Well, Qualitative research is about finding out the ‘why’, not the ‘how’ of a subject through the use of market research using tools like open ended surveys and discussion groups. Qualitative research isn’t just about numbers but also about learning why people behave a certain way, what their attitudes are, what concerns people have, what motivates people and why, etc.

Have you ever participated in Qualitative Research for a company? Possibly in a focus group?
