Focus Groups

Focus groups are an excellent way to capture in-depth information on member or non-member likes, dislikes, desires and intentions. While surveys and other quantitative research methods produce statistically accurate input from a large sample, qualitative research such as focus groups allow you to probe responses for richer and more personal information.

Some examples of how focus groups can be used include:

  • Onsite reaction and feedback to a conference or exhibition
  • Likes and dislikes of communication and/or information pieces;
  • Reaction to current or proposed membership benefit programs;
  • Feedback on competitive organizations or products.

There are several types of focus group formats including the traditional, in-person group, online groups or telephone groups. Each of these formats has pluses and minuses depending on the specific project goals, time frame and budget.
