PURPOSE AND PERSPECTIVE OF THE CHAPTER

activity than many people realize. In this chapter, we begin with the definition of marketing research
before moving on to discuss the different types of firms that conduct marketing research. The variety of

the skills needed. The chapter concludes with the reasons anyone can benefit from a better understanding
of marketing research.
