Research methods we use

Focus groups

Focus groups

Moderated discussion with 6–8 participants from the target group. Group dynamics reveal how people react to the opinions of others, where they agree, and where their attitudes diverge. Ideal for testing concepts, advertising messages, new branding, or product names.

Individual interviews (In-depth interviews)

Individual interviews (In-depth interviews)

Hodinový štruktúrovaný rozhovor 1:1 s reprezentantom vašej cieľovej skupiny. Zistíme, ako vaši zákazníci uvažujú, čo ich frustruje, čo zvažujú pred nákupom a aké alternatívy poznajú. Pre citlivé témy (financie, zdravie, B2B rozhodnutia) je to najspoľahlivejšia metóda.

Ideation workshops

Ideation workshops

A facilitated workshop where, together with your team (product, marketing, management, sometimes even customers), we generate, sort, and prioritize solutions to a specific problem. We use proven techniques such as Design Sprint, Crazy 8's, How Might We, Impact/Effort matrix. You leave with a developed concept and alignment across stakeholders.

Usability testing

Usability testing

Real users perform typical tasks on your website, in the app, or prototype. We observe, record the screen, and monitor where they hesitate, where they click incorrectly, and where they give up. The output is a list of specific issues, ranked by severity, and suggestions on how to fix them.

Questionnaires and quantitative surveys

Questionnaires and quantitative surveys

Quantitative research on a representative sample of your customers or the broader population. We will verify whether the findings from the interviews are valid for the entire market, measure satisfaction (NPS, CSAT), segment the customer base, or compare attitudes before/after the campaign.

FAQ / Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on the type of research and the goal you want to achieve.

Typically:

  • Qualitative research (interviews, usability tests): 5–12 respondents are enough to uncover most issues
  • Quantitative research (surveys): 300+ respondents for statistically relevant data

The goal is not to have as many responses as possible, but to correctly understand customer behavior and make decisions based on data, not estimates.

The price depends on the scope, methodology, and number of respondents.

Indicative range:

  • From €3,000 – quick usability testing or smaller qualitative research
  • Up to €30,000+ – comprehensive CX research combining multiple methods

The goal is not to "do research," but to prevent costly mistakes – such as a bad product, a non-functional website, or an ineffective campaign.
We can estimate the exact price after a short (30 min) conversation.

The duration of the research depends on its scope and the chosen methodology.

Typical scenarios:

  • Quick guerrilla test or usability test: ~1 week
  • Qualitative research (interviews): 2–3 weeks
  • Comprehensive research (combination of methods): 4–6 weeks

Even short research can reveal critical issues that have an immediate impact on conversions or the product.
