Market research also allows a company to discover who their target market is and what the customers think about the product or service that is to be offered before it is available to the public.
I will be advising Jennie on what market method that she should approach for her business. The two types of market research are primary and secondary. A primary research also knew as field research or face-to-face method, its information that did not exist …show more content…
The disadvantages of doing secondary are that the information may no longer be valid as the information is old and it could be information that is not related to what Jennie is looking for particularly.
I believe that Jennie should do a primary research to conduct her potential customers.

This question should definitely be in Jennie 's questionnaire as there are many people who do online shopping. However, there is advantages and disadvantages of doing online shopping.
