Synopsis
Essentials of Marketing Research delivers a concise, up-to-date review of a broad variety of marketing research topics. Its application-oriented approach equips students with tools and skills necessary to solve business problems and maximize opportunities. The authors' years of practical market research experience is evidenced in everything from their thorough treatment of qualitative research (a topic often given short shrift) to their knowledgeable coverage of sample size rules-of-thumb, background literature reviews, and new market research tools and techniques including new coverage of structural modeling and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM).
