The Qualitative Market Research deals with
the feelings, attitudes, opinions, and thoughts
of an individual to ascertain their underlying
reasons for behaviour.

Focus Group: A small group of 6-12 people meets to discuss a common topic. The group shares their opinions and experiences. This method helps gather diverse insights on the subject.

Depth Interviews: A one-on-one interview with a few individuals to explore a specific issue. Open-ended questions are used to gather detailed information. This method helps uncover in-depth insights.

Photo Ethnography: The researcher observes and takes photos of people’s behaviors and emotions in various situations. Instead of asking questions, they capture visual data. This approach helps analyze real-life interactions.
