12. ata is the heartbeat of the digitally enterprising
Dentity. In the modern age, every business has no
alternative but to go digital. As the digital revolu-
tion rests on the two bytes of zero and one, modern-age
organizational success depends upon the ever-increasing
bytes of data and information. There is an entire process to
conduct market research – mostly secondary, data collec-
tion, extraction, validation, analysis, interpretation, and
decision-making based upon the insights thus gained.
All businesses, regardless of their size or kind – always
remain in dire need of this business intelligence. For the
most reliable, trustworthy, precise, and authenticate
secondary market research, data extraction and validation,
and business information services, they can completely rely
on lessburn – the frontrunner in offering “Data Hand-
Curation Team” to process 150+ data points on B2B
information landscape!
According to lessburn’s Founder and CEO, Ramesh
Srinivasan, they are a fully-dedicated, customer-centric
Business Information Service Provider located in the
Manchester of South India - Coimbatore. With a growth-
oriented approach towards empowering the Market
Research industry, the market research firm was founded in
2016 by industrial and subject matter experts to deliver top-
notch secondary market research and business Information
Services.
Your Operating Cost, Our Priority
In addition to this, lessburn specializes in offering hyper-
customized Digital Marketing and Business Support
Services by utilizing advanced digital solutions across the
globe. Be it a startup to multinational enterprises, lessburn
renders strategic, creative and personalised approaches that
ensure businesses to ‘burn less’ of their operational cost
with a 2X return on their investment.
With an intensive 15+ years of experience in data and
operations fields, Ramesh directed the operations team of
one of the leading sales intelligence and business informa-
tion research companies. To elevate the start-up to a solid
product-based company, Ramesh has curated a cognitive
approach to enrich their database with Ten million valid
company profiles, thereby increasing the user base to a
million quickly.
But not limiting himself to that, along with a strong desire
to become a successful entrepreneur, Ramesh has started his
business venture – lessburn.
Started with two market researchers, the company has now
grown with 200+ data research experts offering services
for 20+ leading business intelligence providers across the
globe.
Sharing the USPs that make lessburn stand out as the
leading MR company, Ramesh says that the foremost step
in building a reliable market research firm involves a
thorough data vetting process to perfectly understand the
clients’ needs and derive the use cases that specifically fit
the requirements.
lessburn strictly adheres to the Eight-stages of the data
vetting process, right from understanding the business
problem statement, acquiring, extracting and transforming
the existing data into reliable datasets to business making
data-driven decisions based on the delivered data.
Your Business Intelligence, Our Promise
To ensure the accuracy of data, lessburn always identifies
the right talent from the pool of resources and provides
them with a detailed induction programme with comprehen-
sive training on certification courses.
For constant and relentless improvement, the talent pool
will be assessed with daily sample tests, weekly reviews,
and fortnight feedback sessions and provides monthly
awards for the best-performing data researchers who make
an impact.
Highlighting the immersive benefits of his firm's services to
its global clientele, Ramesh says that as lessburn prioritizes
learning and development at its kernel to stay relevant with
the top market trends and technologies, the experienced
research team provides a high-quality deliverable before the
fixed Turnaround Time. As a recent accolade, lessburn has
been recognized by a global data and intelligence provider

quality score 100%, lessburn plunged into a strategic
initiative called ACCURATE to pilot a good data quality
culture. ACCURATE is abbreviated to Actionable,
Consistent, Completeness, Unique, Relevant, Analyzable,
Timely, and Enriched.
lessburn has created an environment where the squad of
data researchers truly understand the repercussions of
delivering bad data and shields human error by following
the sequence of objectives as in ACCURATE. By splitting

culture.
“So, with lessburn, our clients can expect precise and faster
delivery of the data that can be relied on!” states Ramesh.
Your Insightful Decision-Making, Our Accuracy
Being an experienced leader, Ramesh shares his astute
opinions on how technology is transforming the research
sector and what advancements can be expected in the
future. He believes that in this technological era, market
research companies have stepped towards acquiring
advancements in data collection approaches. With an
evolution of AI and ML-based automation, most of the
repeated, rule-based mundane data enrichment tasks will be
eliminated, thereby slicing the time involved in the back-
end operational efforts. With technological advancement,
intent data providers show the online buyer behaviour that
signals the possibility of purchasing intent. The increasing
data availability rate to the users has allowed them to gain
valuable insights more quickly and let anyone make
decisions effectively based on it.
Tech-driven market research companies will speed up
internal processes and streamline the costs associated with
traditional market research techniques. The future of data
collection will continue to evolve as both data researchers
and data providers become tech-savvy.
Your Enrichment, Our Commitment
Ramesh also strongly believes that, be it B2C or B2B,
market research plays a crucial part in any of the business
strategies. Market Research helps anyone to learn more
about their target customers based on certain data types like
firmographic, demographic, and chronograph (key business
alerts). It allows businesses to market their product or
services to the right audience, eventually helping them to
positive conversions, thereby staying ahead of their
competitors. To add value to these business intelligence
providers, lessburn, with their pool of highly-qualified data
researchers, supports with constant enrichment and

cleansing of their data to keep up with timely and accurate
information which ultimately helps the end users to rely on
them.
“Whenever needed, our expert team of data analysts,
scientists, and market research specialists can validate the
source by visiting, revisiting, and cross-checking with the
physical place along with its digital platform. Today, all our
national and international clients trust us to become their
eyes and ears in the constantly evolving market,” he adds.
Lessburn also provides secondary market research and
business information services to the primary researchers to
substantiate their databases.
Your Success, Our Vision
In his advice to the aspirants willing to venture into the
market research niche, Ramesh says, “Being a market
researcher will never set one to boredom!” People might be
sceptical about working in a market research firm as not
aspirational. According to Ramesh, “Based on my experi-
ence, taking up a market researcher role will let one
develop strong consulting skills and personal development;
by communicating with people from different regions
across the globe, it will aid to truly understand the customer
behaviour and bridge the gap between market segments,
various sectors, industry practices, job-roles, etc. Exposure
to social and technological trends gives one plenty of room
to learn and develop industrial practices.”
On envisioning the scaling Lessburn’s scope and solutions
in future, Ramesh divulges that the long-term goal is to
establish Lessburn as the leading Business Information and
Market Research Service provider with not just data
researchers but with a pool of highly qualified data analysts
and data scientists who could deliver 100% quality data
through 100% hand-curation.

According to the report, the global
electric vehicle battery market is
highly competitive, with companies

a significant impact on the global
electric vehicle battery market.
The pandemic has disrupted
supply chains, led to temporary
factory closures, and resulted in
reduced demand for electric
vehicles.
• However, the pandemic has also
led to an increased focus on
sustainable transportation and a
renewed commitment to reducing
greenhouse gas emissions. This
has created new opportunities for
the electric vehicle battery market
as governments and businesses
prioritize the transition to electric
vehicles as part of their climate
change mitigation strategies.
• The Asia-Pacific region is the
largest market for electric vehicle
batteries, with countries like
China, Japan, and South Korea
leading the way in electric vehicle
production and adoption.
• The European Union has set
ambitious goals for reducing
greenhouse gas emissions, which

growth in the electric vehicle
battery market as electric vehicle
adoption increases.

Procedures
24. very business organization that aims to sell its
Eproducts or services, needs to collect a first-hand
study of the market about the target audience,
current market size, competitors with existing players,
market needs and current availability of the proposed
product, cost analysis, distribution network and more. This
in-depth study is known as market research.
A thorough market research gathers complete information
from the market that helps the business organizations in
planning their products/service offerings and its marketing
strategies. It helps in identifying the right direction for the
setting up of the workflow accordingly. Market research is
an important step in entering the market towards effective
product promotion and successful business development in
the target areas.
Understanding the Importance of Market Research
a. Customer Insights: Market research helps businesses
gain a deep understanding of their target customers. It
allows companies to identify customer needs, preferences,
and purchasing behaviours. By gathering customer insights,
businesses can tailor their products, services, and marketing
strategies to meet the specific demands of their target
market, leading to increased customer satisfaction and
loyalty.
b. Identifying Market Opportunities: Market research
helps identify untapped market opportunities and emerging
trends. By analysing market data and consumer behaviour,
businesses can uncover new niches, identify gaps in the
market, and develop innovative solutions to meet evolving
customer demands. This enables businesses to stay ahead of
the competition and capitalize on potential growth areas.
Assessing Competitors: Market research provides valuable
information about competitors' strategies, strengths, and
weaknesses. Understanding the competitive landscape
allows businesses to position themselves effectively,
differentiate their offerings, and develop competitive
advantages. By monitoring competitors' activities and
customer perceptions, businesses can adapt their strategies
and offerings to gain a competitive edge.
d. Mitigating Risks: Market research helps mitigate
business risks by providing insights into market dynamics,
changing customer preferences, and potential challenges.
By conducting thorough market research, businesses can
make informed decisions, identify potential risks, and
develop contingency plans to mitigate them. This proactive
approach reduces the likelihood of costly mistakes and
enhances business resilience.
Different Types of Market Research Procedures
a. Surveys and Questionnaires: Surveys and
questionnaires are popular methods for gathering
quantitative and qualitative data. They involve structured
22 | May, 2023 | www.insightssuccess.in
25. questions and can be conducted through various channels,
including online surveys, telephone interviews, or in-person
questionnaires. Surveys help gather information about
customer preferences, opinions, and behaviours, providing
valuable insights for product development, marketing
campaigns, and market segmentation.
b. Interview Sessions: Interviews involve direct
communication with individuals or groups to gather in-
depth insights. They can be conducted face-to-face, over the
phone, or through video conferencing.
Interviews allow businesses to delve deeper into customers'
thoughts, motivations, and experiences, providing rich
qualitative data. They are particularly useful for
understanding complex decision-making processes,
gathering feedback on products or services, and exploring
new market opportunities.
c. Focus Groups: Focus groups involve bringing together a
small group of individuals to participate in a guided
discussion facilitated by a moderator. This method
encourages open dialogue and provides qualitative insights
into participants' perceptions, preferences, and opinions.
Focus groups are effective for exploring new product
concepts, testing marketing messages, and gaining a deeper
understanding of customer needs and preferences.
d. Observational Research: Observational research
involves observing and recording consumer behaviour in
real-time. This can be done through in-person observation,
video recording, or tracking digital interactions.
Observational research provides valuable insights into
consumer habits, purchasing patterns, and product usage,
helping businesses understand customer behaviour in
natural settings. It is particularly useful for retail
23 | May, 2023 | www.insightssuccess.in
environments, website usability testing, and analysing
consumer interactions with physical products.
e. Secondary Research: Secondary research involves
gathering information from existing sources, such as
industry reports, government publications, academic
studies, and online databases. It provides valuable market
data, industry trends, and competitor analysis without the
need for primary data collection. Secondary research is
cost-effective and time-efficient, providing a foundation for
further market analysis and strategy development.
f. Data Analytics: Data analytics involves analysing large
sets of data to uncover patterns, trends, and correlations. It
utilizes advanced statistical techniques and algorithms to
extract meaningful insights from structured and
unstructured data sources. Data analytics helps businesses
make data-driven decisions, identify customer segments,
optimize marketing campaigns, and forecast market trends.
It is particularly useful for analysing customer behaviour,
predicting demand, and enhancing overall business
performance.
Market research is an essential tool for businesses to gain a
competitive edge, understand customer needs, identify
market opportunities, and make informed decisions. By
utilizing various market research procedures such as
surveys, interviews, focus groups, observational research,
secondary research, and data analytics, businesses can
gather valuable insights for effective strategic planning and
growth. Embracing market research as an integral part of
business operations allows companies to adapt to changing
market dynamics, stay ahead of the competition, and meet
customer expectations in an ever-evolving marketplace.

28. Brief us about yourself and shed some light on your
professional tenure.
As one of the co-founder of Levitation Infotech LLP, I
am proud to have launched this venture in 2018 alongside
Mr. Shivankit Kumar and Mr. Akash Verma. Right from the
beginning, I have held a strong belief in the power of
research and process, and I have worked to establish a
corporate culture at Levitation that prioritizes innovation
and research.
In my opinion, creating a corporate culture that encourages
innovation is critical to achieving long-term success. That's
why I am always striving to inspire our team to think
outside the box and to seek out new and innovative
solutions to the challenges we face.
One quote that has been particularly inspiring to me is from
hockey legend Wayne Gretzky. He once said, We skate to
where the puck is going to be, not where it has been. This
quote encapsulates our approach at Levitation, and it has
become our guiding motto. We are always looking ahead
and anticipating the needs of our clients, so that we can stay
ahead of the curve and deliver exceptional results.
Levitation has become the first agency in its space to scale
businesses using Design Thinking, a five-step approach to
problem-solving. My initial work experience was in the
healthcare industry, where I identified technological and
marketing problems in the sector. It led me to start
Levitation along with my co-founders to address these
issues using innovative solutions. My background in
healthcare has provided me with the skills and knowledge
necessary to identify the industry's challenges and develop
practical solutions through Levitation's innovative
approach. In its early years, Levitation focused on
healthcare, but now we serve more than five sectors.
What USPs make you stand out as a leading Market
Research Company?
As a research-first company, our USPs are centred around
our commitment to providing human-centric solutions that
add value to our clients. We utilize Design Thinking to
create innovative solutions that address our client's specific
needs. We take pride in our dedication to our customers,
taking the time to get a deep comprehension of their
company and their target audience so that we can craft
tailored solutions that work for them. Our Research team
looks at the customer’s problem from a 360-degree view to
ensure we don’t miss out on anything.
Furthermore, the team makes a research design and a
hypothesis before starting the research. Based on the
research design, they decide whether a qualitative or
quantitative approach is needed. Our solutions are designed
to add value to our clients by providing insights and
recommendations that drive business growth and success.
We focus on delivering actionable and measurable results
that can be easily implemented to create real business
impact.
What are the immersive benefits of your services to your
clients?
By putting the customer at the centre of our research
process and empathy mapping, we identify key pain points,
desires, and motivations that can be leveraged to drive
business success. We utilize a human-centric approach that
considers the emotional and behavioural aspects of our
client's customers.
By understanding the underlying motivations and drivers of
human behaviour, we can develop solutions that not only
solve problems but also connect with customers on a deeper
level.
Being an experienced leader, share your opinion on how
technology is transforming the research sector and what
advancements we can expect in the future.
We believe that technology has already made significant
advancements in the research sector. We can expect even
more transformative developments in the future. These
advancements will make it easier for researchers to collect
and analyze data, gain insights into consumer behaviour,
and improve the accuracy and reliability of research.
One central area of advancement is automation and artificial
intelligence. These two aspects transform the research
sector by automating many data collection and analysis
tasks. It allows researchers to focus on higher-level tasks,
such as interpreting data and making recommendations.
The rise of big data has also created new opportunities for
researchers to gain insights into consumer behaviour and
preferences. With the help of big data analytics tools,
researchers can process and analyze vast amounts of data
quickly and efficiently.
Another area of advancement is the Internet of Things
(IoT), which is used to collect real-time data from various
sources, including consumer devices and sensors.

29. It is really useful in Product development and creating a
better user experience. IoT sensors allow researchers to
gather more accurate, real-time, and up-to-date information,
which can be used to make better-informed decisions.
What would be your advice to the aspirants willing to
venture into the market research niche?
We would say, please, gain a strong foundation in research
methodologies. And start with one industry and expand
gradually. Research is a very painful process. So, it is
imperative not to become biased while conducting research.
Staying up-to-date with the latest technological
advancements is also important for market researchers.
But the most important thing is to have a curious and open-
minded approach. Aspirants should be willing to explore
new ideas, challenge assumptions, and think creatively to
find solutions to complex problems.
How do you envision scaling Levitation’s scope and
offerings in the future?
We plan to expand our scope and offerings by moving
toward cognitive marketing and enterprise software
development. To achieve this, extensive research will be
required. Therefore, we plan to keep Design Thinking at the
heart of everything we do.
In addition, Levitation plans to invest more in technology to
improve its capabilities and offer more advanced services to
its clients. By staying up-to-date with the latest trends and
technologies, Levitation can continue to provide high-
quality services and remain competitive in the market.

Bto expanding in the market with their current and
new products needs to analyse the market about its
existing trends, prevailing trends and competition, and
several other factors. These basic details help in preparing
the marketing strategy and optimize the product reach with
greater impact.
Though it sounds simple, but the market research process is
very specific and vast in its nature due to the several
variables involved in its procedures. Hence it becomes
challenging for the organizations to conduct the market
research themselves through their internal teams. Business
organizations consult market research organizations that
support in the entire process and obtain the crucial data
required for the marketing purposes. Lets identify the vital
characteristics of a standard market research organization
and its role in the industrial sectors.
Expertise and Experience
A standard market research organization exhibits a high
level of expertise and experience in the field. They have a
team of skilled professionals with in-depth knowledge of
research methodologies, data analysis techniques, and
industry trends. These experts possess a strong
understanding of various market research approaches,
including quantitative and qualitative methods, and can

market research techniques, tools, and technologies,
ensuring the use of best practices in data collection,
analysis, and reporting.
Robust Methodology and Quality Assurance
Modern market research organizations follow a robust
methodology to ensure the reliability and validity of
research findings. They employ systematic approaches in
designing surveys, interviews, focus groups, or
observational studies, adhering to industry standards and
best practices. Rigorous methodologies enable them to
collect high-quality data that reflects the target population
and yields actionable insights.
Quality assurance is a cornerstone of a standard market
research organization. They implement rigorous checks and
balances at every stage of the research process to maintain
data accuracy and integrity. This includes ensuring proper
sampling techniques, data verification, and thorough
analysis to eliminate bias and enhance the reliability of
results.
Ethical Standards and Confidentiality
Ethics and confidentiality are paramount in market research.
Professional market research organizations adhere to strict
ethical guidelines, such as the ICC/ESOMAR International
Code on Market, Opinion, and Social Research and Data
Analytics. They prioritize respondent privacy and informed
consent, ensuring that personal information remains
confidential and research participants are treated with
respect.
Moreover, they comply with applicable data protection
regulations, such as GDPR (General Data Protection
Regulation) and CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act),
when handling and storing sensitive data. Confidentiality
agreements are in place to protect client information and
maintain strict data security measures.
Customized Approach and Client Collaboration
Today’s advanced market research organization understands
that every client is unique, with specific research objectives
and challenges. They adopt a customized approach,
tailoring research methodologies and techniques to meet
client requirements. By closely collaborating with clients,
they gain a deep understanding of their business goals,
target audience, and desired outcomes.
Client collaboration extends beyond project initiation. A
standard market research organization maintains open
communication channels throughout the research process,
seeking client input and feedback to ensure alignment with
objectives. They provide regular updates on research
progress, share interim findings, and involve clients in the
interpretation and analysis of results.
Data Analysis and Actionable Insights
Professional market research companies excel in data
analysis and interpretation. They possess advanced data
analysis capabilities and employ statistical techniques to
derive meaningful insights from raw data. Skilled analysts
transform complex data sets into clear and concise reports,
charts, and visualizations that effectively communicate
research findings.
Furthermore, they go beyond reporting data and provide
actionable insights that help clients make informed
decisions. They interpret research findings in the context of
business objectives, market trends, and industry
benchmarks, providing recommendations and strategic
guidance.
Continuous Learning and Innovation
The standard market research companies embrace a culture
of continuous learning and innovation. They invest in
ongoing training and professional development to stay at
the forefront of market research practices. By staying
updated on emerging technologies and methodologies, they
offer innovative research solutions to address evolving
client needs.
Additionally, they actively participate in industry
conferences, workshops, and research forums to expand
their knowledge, exchange ideas, and foster collaboration
with other market research professionals.
Choosing a standard market research organization is vital
for businesses seeking reliable insights to drive decision-
making. Organizations with expertise, robust
methodologies, ethical standards, client collaboration, data
analysis capabilities, and a commitment to continuous
learning are well-equipped to deliver high-quality research.
By partnering with such organizations, businesses can
leverage the power of market research to gain a competitive
advantage, uncover new opportunities, and achieve long-
term success in today's dynamic business landscape.
