Scientific Methods

Scientific Methods of Marketing Research

What is the best combination of product features and prices that maximizes profit? If more money is spent on advertising, will sales go up? What if the media mix is changed? What is the impact of a new package?

At Decision Analyst, Advanced Analytics is the application of scientific method to the solution of business and marketing problems. The central focus is the scientific determination of “cause and effect” through rigorous research designs and carefully controlled experiments.

Traditional question-and-answer surveys assume that all respondents are self-aware and smart enough to accurately answer the questions. Often these assumptions are not true. Our Advanced Analytics Group employs an array of implicit measurements to get at the underlying truth—the real reasons for consumers’ buying decisions.
