Market Research
Is the process of gathering, analysing and interpreting information about a market.
Product- Oriented

Primary Research
Primary research is the process of collecting new, firsthand data directly from sources like surveys, interviews, and focus groups.
Secondary Research
Secondary research involves using existing data from sources like reports, articles, and government statistics instead of collecting new information.
