What is primary market research (PMR), and when should an organization use it?
Primary market research gathers new information directly from the audiences that matter to your organization, such as members, customers, prospects, employees, or other stakeholders. It can help uncover needs, perceptions, behaviors, and priorities to inform decisions about programs, services, engagement, positioning, and growth.
What is a pulse survey, and when should an organization use one?
A pulse survey is a short, focused survey used to quickly gather feedback and track changes over time. Organizations can use pulse surveys to understand member, employee, customer, or stakeholder sentiment, identify emerging issues, and measure trends between larger research initiatives.
Can Vault manage an entire research project or support just one part?
Both. Vault can lead a research initiative from strategy and survey design through data collection, analysis, reporting, and interpretation, or provide targeted support for a specific stage based on your team’s needs and internal capacity.
