What is qualitative research and when should it be used?
Qualitative research explores the 'why' and 'how' behind behaviors, decisions, and attitudes through in-depth conversations and observations. It's ideal when you need to understand complex motivations, uncover unmet needs, explore emotional factors, or generate new hypotheses. Qualitative methods provide rich context and depth that quantitative approaches cannot capture, making them essential for innovation, experience design, and messaging development.
How many participants do you recommend for qualitative studies?
For B2B qualitative research, we typically recommend 15-30 total participants, with specific numbers depending on methodology and audience segmentation. In-depth interviews generally require 12-20 participants, while focus groups typically include 3-4 groups of 6-8 participants each. We determine optimal sample sizes based on audience complexity, research objectives, and the principle of theoretical saturation.
How do you ensure you're speaking with the right decision-makers?
We implement rigorous recruitment strategies including multi-stage screening, professional verification, role validation, and expertise confirmation. Our B2B participant network includes over 50,000 pre-screened professionals across industries, and we employ specialized recruitment techniques for hard-to-reach executives and technical specialists to ensure conversations with genuine decision-makers.
What techniques do you use to analyze qualitative data?
We employ sophisticated qualitative analysis methodologies including thematic analysis, grounded theory, framework analysis, and discourse analysis. Our researchers use advanced coding techniques, pattern recognition, and contextual interpretation supported by specialized qualitative analysis software to ensure systematic, comprehensive insight extraction.
How do you present qualitative research findings?
Our qualitative research deliverables include comprehensive reports with executive summaries, detailed findings, verbatim quotes, and strategic recommendations. We enhance reports with journey maps, experience frameworks, and visual models to illustrate complex insights. Video highlight reels and interactive presentations are available to bring participant voices directly to your team.
