“Our American clients taught us that ‘I want to know’ falls too short. In English, you always find the phrase ‘I need to understand’, which has become a second nature to us in our market research self-conception.“
The need for in-depth understanding is what triggers qualitative research and makes our profession so unique. It’s the one and only job where being curious is not only rewarded but also pays your bills.
But seriously: qualitative research over and over again demands ‘artificial greenness’ to meet every research objective with an impartiality and an open mind. We need to explore deeper and deeper and never stop probing because you don’t want to settle for single-edged and superficial responses. And you shouldn’t!
The Business Objective

Interventional Cardiologists are very special people. But how can we do a typology on them without falling for the clichés? How can we really understand who they are and what they do and use this for an individually tailored communication approach?

Petra Kemmerzell: “We asked our IC respondents to build a rock band and tell us about their own role within that band – would they rather see themselves playing the lead guitar, being front man as a singer or would they belong to the rhythm group? What instruments do the other team members play within that band? That projection helped us gain valuable and honest personality traits for this specialty group. We then validated these traits in the next step of the process by talking to their superiors, colleagues and Cath Lab medical assistant staff using the same analogy. This gave us a control group to avoid single-sided and possibly socially desired self-descriptions of our primary target group.“
