Qualitative Techniques

Qualitative research is used to understand the underlying reasons behind people's opinions, the choices they make and their behaviour.

It is best suited to exploratory studies, tactical research and testing communications materials such as key messages and advertising.

It can also be used to identify and understand emerging trends and is a rich source of ideas for marketing and creative teams.

Qualitative research can be conducted at UMR offices or in the field. UMR researchers travel throughout Australia and New Zealand conducting qualitative research on behalf of clients.
