Focus Group Discussion
In a business, during marketing plan or in marketing research, a Focus Group Discussion is necessary as it helps the company to learn about valuable information about customers attitude and their perception and the product or services they wanted.
The Focus Group Discussion is a qualitative research method which may consist of 10 to 12 person and it may last up to 45 minutes, too long discussion or many people may create chaos and it became difficult to keep a record of the discussion. It is a way better than surveying as survey could convey what people think, but focus group discussion covers why people thought like that.
The main objective of Focus Group Discussion should be planned carefully keeping in mind the agenda and planning and how to record the session. The most important element of Focus Group Discussion is facilitation, the facilitator should ensure even participation, careful wording and neutral attitude during the discussion and after discussions summarising the session to reflect the opinion evenly. Focus Group Discussion could even be done online Breaking the barrier of distance, as we must have seen during prime time.
