Exploratory Focus Groups:

Exploratory focus groups are only helpful if they provide an in-depth discussion and exchange on customer needs and new concepts or products. While most exploratory focus groups follow a structured discussion guide that does not include peer-to-peer interactions, Metaplan’s approach ensures that all participants voice their opinions. The focus is on relevant subject matter, and the meeting is kept engaging and interactive from beginning to end in order to find new ideas and solutions. Metaplan’s methodology utilizes a variety of exercises targeting the specific objectives of the research. The discussion elicits a range of ideas, attitudes, experiences, and opinions in an iterative way. Our clients have found that this process drives the participants to offer creative and pragmatic solutions, as well as a variety of different perspectives to test hypotheses and create insights for new directions.


Experiential/ Confirmatory Focus Groups

Experiential/confirmatory focus groups are used to observe customers with experience using products (and to learn from those observations) or to hear motivations for the purchase of a product. Metaplan's professional moderators are an essential element of making these focus groups effective. We translate between the established modes of thought and behavioral patterns of different groups and individuals. In this way, participants’ points of view can be understood and suggestions can be taken. We question the various patterns of the group participants. Metaplan integrates the best of focus groups with the best of one-on-one interviews to produce an interactive forum that fosters in-depth exploration of topics in a controlled, yet highly interactive, setting.
