KAA conducts regular scientific market research surveys and analysis of different markets.
KAA focuses on surveys that provide clients with information that is vital to the planning of
market strategies. Action-oriented surveys directly provide the client with a set of short and
long term recommendations.
Market research is basic research with an overriding requirement to have direct business
application. For research to be of any use it should follow laborious narrowly defined scientific
methodology. Otherwise the results could be useless or, worse, wrong. An effective market research
project is composed of two separate segments: the scientific and technical research segment, and the
applied and business-oriented segment.
Here at KAA, Inc. we have been providing professional analytical services for a variety of
multi-national, national and regional corporations since 1988. We make sure that the surveys are
designed and conducted in accordance with technical and analytical requirements to provide the
client with results which have scientific accuracy and statistical significance. We usually assign
more than one Ph.D. to each survey, at least during the early stages of design and development.
SURVEYS - KAA surveys business and/or retail customers in a "market" to determine their comfort level
with present suppliers, their satisfaction with the products they are using, and the reason they
picked certain suppliers. We also inquire as to the their level of "loyalty" to their present supplier.
The graph
"The Most Important Reason for Doing Business with:"
compares customer reasons for selecting one company over the others. These surveys will collect information
from the ultimate decision makers. The results will be analyzed based on different customer stratifications
alongside, locations, income, age, gender and other segmentations of interest.
