Replace broad market assumptions with a bounded view of buyers, alternatives, demand signals and evidence gaps.

01

Named ownership

An owner is named for Research question map, an approver for Buyer and alternative evidence and a continuing custodian for Decision memo with open risks. Access and review dates are part of the handover.

02

The commercial question

Market research starts by making the customer situation, alternatives, constraints, decision criteria and a balanced mix of behavioural and stated evidence visible in one real commercial situation. The synthesis must show contrary evidence and what remains unknown, not erase disagreement behind an average.

03

What the work produces

Research question map establishes the starting evidence; Buyer and alternative evidence turns it into a controlled direction; Decision memo with open risks preserves the decision and handover.

04

A responsible boundary

The proposal separates prerequisites, included work and later options. It also names the condition in which a small set of decision interviews or focused desk research when one uncertainty blocks progress is the more responsible choice.

05

Evidence before opinion

The review uses customer, channel and operating evidence that the buyer can inspect. It specifically tests the risk that opinions from a convenient sample are generalized to a market without recruitment logic or counterevidence.

06

Acceptance you can repeat

Sign-off is attached to observable material: clear research questions, transparent recruitment, source triangulation, uncertainty notes and decisions linked to findings. The reviewer can reject an incomplete state without debating taste.

01

Research question map

Research question map makes the starting evidence visible. It must show how the customer situation, alternatives, constraints, decision criteria and a balanced mix of behavioural and stated evidence appears in the buyer’s actual situation, not in a fictional example.

02

Buyer and alternative evidence

Buyer and alternative evidence turns the chosen direction into a controlled operating route. Its review should expose this known failure: opinions from a convenient sample are generalized to a market without recruitment logic or counterevidence.

03

Decision memo with open risks

Decision memo with open risks carries acceptance and handover. A named owner should be able to verify clear research questions, transparent recruitment, source triangulation, uncertainty notes and decisions linked to findings without relying on an unexplained presentation.

FAQ / Buyer questions

Questions people ask before buying

01What should our team prepare before Market research starts?+

Bring one recent customer or campaign case, the current Research question map material, access constraints and the person authorised to make the commercial decision. The opening review uses these inputs to examine the customer situation, alternatives, constraints, decision criteria and a balanced mix of behavioural and stated evidence.

02How is the scope of Market research confirmed?+

The scope separates prerequisites, the three named outputs and later options. If the evidence shows that a small set of decision interviews or focused desk research when one uncertainty blocks progress is sufficient, the smaller route is documented before a proposal is approved.

03How does the work move from evidence to delivery?+

Research question map establishes the starting point, Buyer and alternative evidence carries the chosen direction and Decision memo with open risks records the handover. Reviews happen at the decisions between those artifacts, not only at the end.

04What is the acceptance standard for Market research?+

Acceptance means clear research questions, transparent recruitment, source triangulation, uncertainty notes and decisions linked to findings. The evidence and owner are named in advance, so a polished presentation cannot substitute for an incomplete operating result.

05When should we choose a smaller engagement?+

Choose a small set of decision interviews or focused desk research when one uncertainty blocks progress when it resolves the central uncertainty without creating unused process. The full service is appropriate when the connected decisions and ownership all need to change together.
