KUSHNIR Taras – Candidate of Economical Sciences, Associate Professor, Associate Professor of the Department of Marketing, Ivan Franko Lviv National University (79000, Lviv, 18, Svodoby Avenue, e-mail: taras.kushnir@lnu.edu.ua, https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1643-2273).
It was determined and substantiated that conducting marketing research and implementing its results provides a higher level of the efficiency in making management decisions that can provide significant competitive advantages to participants in industrial markets. It was determined that in industrial markets secondary information obtained from both internal and external sources of the company is more often used for the analysis. In the industrial market, the market and the enterprise itself are studied. In the context of market research, its conjuncture, features and volumes of demand and supply, market capacity, features of competition, sales trends and behavior of key market entities are studied. The areas of enterprise research include its competitiveness, the effectiveness of its economic activities, the effectiveness of intra-firm activities, and the assessment of the effectiveness of marketing activities implemented by the enterprise.
Given the rational nature of buyer behavior in industrial markets, the use of quantitative methods is more typical for conducting marketing research, such as: multidimensional methods, regression and correlation methods, simulation methods, methods of statistical decision theory, and deterministic methods of operations research, which contribute to increasing the efficiency of management decision-making by the management of industrial enterprises.
It has been determined that the main method of collecting primary information in industrial markets is a survey, the use of which differs significantly from consumer markets in the following parameters: sample size, availability of respondents, definition of respondents, cooperation with respondents, interviewers, and the cost of the study.
A comparative analysis of the methodology for conducting marketing research in the markets of industrial goods and markets of final consumer goods was carried out, and the distinctive characteristics of industrial marketing research were identified.
