Outline with Examples the Advantages and Disadvantages of Conducting Market Research on the Internet Compared with More Traditional Methods
Abstract
Due to the continuous progress of communication technology, today's market survey methods have become more and more efficient. The early face-to-face interview and telephone inquiry have gradually evolved into the current network survey. With the popularization and application of the Internet, the way of the online market survey has the opportunity to replace the traditional survey methods, but the online market survey still has some defects, so the time-honored survey methods are still irreplaceable. Consequently, to better promote and apply market survey methods in the future, this paper will compare and analyze the two survey types to find a more optimized survey way, in terms of timeliness, investigation scope, data quality.References
