About this course

Uncover Market Insights: Research Essentials is for anyone tasked with turning ambiguous business questions into actionable research projects. You'll move beyond just collecting data to understanding the strategic "why" behind every research request. Learn to identify the five core purposes of market research—from sizing a market to understanding customer satisfaction—and connect them directly to the questions your stakeholders are asking. Through practical, real-world examples inspired by successes and failures at companies like Netflix and Coca-Cola, you will master a structured approach to project initiation. The course culminates in you learning how to use a standardized intake form, a critical tool for capturing project goals, defining the target audience, and setting clear timelines and deliverables. By the end, you won't just be fulfilling requests; you'll be a strategic partner who ensures every research project is set up for success from day one, bringing clarity and alignment to your team's data-driven decisions.

What you will learn

  • Translate business questions into clear research requirements using a standardized intake process to launch effective market research projects.
