Quantitative Research
Quantitative research is about asking people (the potential audience) for
their opinions in a structured way so that you can produce hard facts and
statistics to guide you. To get reliable statistical results, its important to
survey people in fairly large numbers and to make sure they are a
representative sample of your target market. In the case of music videos
for example and generating ale sin the music industry.
Quantitative research is widely based on figures. So a simple way to
obtain the certain information you need, for example if you were trying to
determine what where the 20 most popular hits in a certain week. You
would research the statistics. You would go out to find numbers such as ,
most popular downloads on iTunes , most listened to tracks on Spotify in
that week , conduct a survey over a large sum of people , asking them
what their favorite song is .For example, here is list of the top 20
downloaded tracks on iTunes, this week.
From pieces of gathered information like these, record labels and
production companies can determine what songs are the most popular at
the time and what tracks that are worth putting time into promoting,
making music videos about for example.
Secondary Research
Data gathering agencies are corporations that gather raw information for
you, BARB is an example of this. Another example is the R.A.J.A.R is an
organisation that stands for radio joint audience research. This
organisation measures radio audiences in the Uk. It is a joint name as it is
owned by the bbc and the radio centre and there is about 310 radio
stations on the survey.
