Earliest Known
Studies
• Charles Coolidge Parlin is
known as the “father of
marketing research.”
• Parlin conducted the first
continuous marketing research
in the early 1900s for the Curtis
Publishing Company.
• The purpose of Parlin’s
research was to increase
advertising for The Saturday
Evening Post magazine.
5
20th Century Led to a
“Mature Industry”
• The Industrial Revolution led to
manufacturers producing
goods for distant markets.
• Manufacturers needed to know
about faraway consumers.
• This led to the growing need for
marketing research.
6
Who Conducts
Marketing Research?
• Internal suppliers:
organizations that supply their
own marketing research
information
• Client-side research:
conducted by internal
	 suppliers
• DYI research: facilitated by
Internet access to
secondary data and better
knowledge of data analysis
software such as SPSS
7
Who Conducts Marketing Research?
• External suppliers: outside firms hired to fulfill a company’s marketing
research needs
• Agency: firm specializing in marketing research and offer their services to
buyers needing information to make more informed decisions

11
Industry Structure
• Types of firms and their
specialties
• Full-service supplier firms:
have the capability to
conduct the entire marketing
research project for buyer
firms
• Limited-service supplier
firms: specialize in one or, at
most, a few marketing
research activities
12
Limited Service Firms
13
Industry Performance:
Industry Revenues and Profits
• ESOMAR (International
Association of Research
Professionals) estimates
worldwide revenues for the
marketing research industry at
$31.2 billion.
• Revenues vary around the
world.
14
Industry Performance:
Qualitative Evaluation
• Questions about what constitutes marketing research
• New methods to collect and analyze consumer information (primarily from
social media) and challenges traditional marketing research information-
gathering techniques
• Mistreatment of respondents
• Too many requests for research, overly long surveys, and breaches of
promised anonymity have led to a decrease in the number of respondents
willing to take part in research. 	
15
Industry Performance:
Qualitative Evaluation
• Marketing research is too focused on techniques
• Clients may steer clear of companies that promote their standardized
technique, preferring to work with firms over a longer time to develop an
understanding of their business.
• Marketing research viewed as a commodity
• Too many executives view marketing research as providing a commodity
to be outsourced to “research brokers,” who are hired to conduct a
component of the research process when they should be involved in the
entire process.
16
Industry Initiatives
• Best practices
• Maintaining public credibility of research
• Monitoring industry trends
• Improving ethical conduct (Know Sugging and Frugging For Test 1)
• Certification of qualified research professionals
• Continuing education
