VisionsLive - a provider of online market research tools and services - decided in late 2015, to carry out an un-commissioned piece of research to use as a case study for the online qualitative approach. The company and brand chosen for this was the global transportation company phenomenon – UBER. UBER has since changed brand identity, however this piece of research (which was carried out prior to the company’s rebrand), goes some way to validate retrospectively, that these innovative entrepreneurs managed to anticipate the needs of their customers in their quest to drive the brand forward in the global marketplace. The document also uncovers some quite startling and revealing observations in the way that qualitative research aspires to deliver - not only just information, but also to provide meaningful and actionable insights into what consumers truly think and want by using effective techniques designed to tap into their deeper thoughts and emotions.
