Proven Focus Group Questions Tested in Business Reality

I am Henk Hoets, author of Instant Focus Group Questions, and Managing Director at FocusGroupTips.com, a market research firm. I have moderated over a thousand depth interviews and focus groups.

Through real-world trial and error, I refined and polished the qualitative questions and techniques offered in Instant Focus Group Questions.

Over the years, I collected questions while working in the corporate world at Motorola and EF Johnson Co., and in my own qualitative marketing research firm, FocusGroupTips.com. Further, I learned questions and techniques from research professionals working with several marketing research agencies. And I attended professional marketing research courses – RIVA Institute and the University of Georgia’s Principles of Marketing Research.

Most importantly, I tested the questions in the real world of business with clients. International Paper, Motorola, NTT DoCoMo, BP Castrol, ESPN, Microsoft, Research In Motion, Palm, LG, Eastman Chemical, Sherwood Packaging, Diamond Management & Technology, Sol Melia, Buca di Bepo, and several other large, medium, and small companies. Instant focus group questions work.

A Unique Focus Group Handbook that Saves Time and Money

It is clear, simple, and easy to use. It contains over a hundred instant focus group questions you can use over-and-over again.

Many books about qualitative research are textbooks. The textbooks are academic, theoretical, and dry. And many are not marketing or business focused; they are for the social sciences.

And most business books about qualitative marketing research tell, but they don’t show. They don’t give you many instant focus group questions.

Instant Focus Group Questions – Develop Winning Advertising, Marketing, and Products gives you 364 instant focus group questions.

In my 248-page e-book, you get proven techniques. You get focus group and depth interview questions that work. You learn about common pitfalls with focus groups and depth interviews. And, how to avoid them.

Besides focus groups, you can use it for depth interviews, social media monitoring and engagement and for ethnography.

If you attend a focus group training course, it would cost about $2,600 to $3,300. That is roughly what Burke Institute and RIVA Training Institute costs.

Plus, you need to add travel, lodging, and meal costs…so you could add another $1,000 to $2,500. So, now your costs are about $3,600 to $5,500.

Plus you would lose three or four days of work time. Add that cost too. And you have to wait for the course schedule. RIVA and Burke run on their own schedules, not yours. You could wait for months.
