SixthFactor being one of the top market research companies in Dubai, UAE has mastered the field of Behavioral economics, a rare but highly profitable component of Market Research. We have to measure the extent of what people actually decide to do and what factors drive them to invoke that behavior, which brings us to the gist of behavioral economics.

WHAT SOME OF OUR SATISFIED CLIENTS ARE SAYING

Hossam EldinBader

Chief Accountant, Gulf Concrete and Blocks

We required a location feasibility study to expand our business into a new emirate in UAE, and we approached Greenland Market Research for this. The project was very professionally handled and the team is very hardworking and punctual. Since a major part of your success depends on an accurate feasibility study, it is imperative that this part is done by someone reliable. We were very satisfied with the results and would strongly recommend Greenland for feasibility studies.

Murtaza Saifuddin

CEO, Casablanca

We required market research to gain insights into the pricing strategies that were being implemented by the businesses in our industry. Greenland was suggested to us by a reliable source and no doubt, they did the job perfectly. Mr. Muffadal and his entire team cooperated very well, and unlike a lot of other firms, they submitted the results to us right on time and were willing to negotiate the prices to fit our budget. They take measures to ensure client satisfaction, which makes the biggest difference to us. I would, with second thoughts, suggest Greenland to anyone needing market research.

Dinesh Charan

Director, Kadence

I would like to take this opportunity to commend the Greenland team on successfully completing fieldwork for an Automotive project. Though the target group was relatively tough and the fieldwork schedule was tight, it is all because of the hard work and dedication of the team that we could complete the project on time. We sincerely appreciate everyone’s role in the success and wish that you will provide the same support for future projects.

Amjad Alshawabkeh

Director, Hashibhasha

It was a great pleasure working with you and your team,  we appreciate all the efforts and inputs to have a successful detailed research report for our Hashi Basha business, which was approved by the Guinness team and met all the expectations.

Once again big thanks and looking forward to working together on future projects.

Hussain Mansoor

CEO, Hype Communications

You require the most support at the beginning of your business. In the unpredictable business world, it helps to have a certain degree of assurance that your product would make it to the ranks of the market. That is precisely what Greenland Market Research offered us. Answers to all our questions about how well would our product fare, and it is because of their findings, that we have been able to make better decisions about our business. The team was cooperative throughout the entire project and didn’t hesitate to throw in a few advice here and there on what would be better. If you are looking for a research partner, I would strongly recommend Greenland.

Utkarsh Verma

Marketing Head, Cars24

I found Greenland Research extremely diligent, professional in the way they do everything related to research. In my first conversation with the team, I was more than sure that I want to work with this team. They were just a phone call away. Please don’t shy away from giving them a chance to get the best consumer insight for your business. Happy researching!

Cahyani Dewi

The moderators were experienced to conduct qualitative studies so they quickly understood the plan and executed it well. Thank you for all your support during our project.

Frequently asked questions, what is market research.

In simple terms Market research enables a company to discover the target oriented market and get opinions, reviews and other feedback from consumers about their interest in the product or service

Why market research is important?

Market research helps reduce risk by identifying problematic areas and helps you take profitable risk by allowing you to determine product features, pricing and promotions from the outset. It also helps you focus resources where they will be most effective. In short market research gives you accurate information on Product, Placement, Pricing and Promotion.

How long will it take to complete my market research?

The time taken to complete market research depends on methodology, number of groups and dept of information that has to be studied. A focus group of 10-15 participants can be done in 2 days, whereas face to face interviews of 500 respondents might take 2 – 3 weeks to complete, In-depth interview with 15 participants may take up to 1-2 weeks and telephonic CATI interviews of 500 sample would take 1 – 2 weeks to complete.

What is the difference between Quantitative and Qualitative market research?

Quantitative data collections refers various surveys which includes Online surveys and Polls, Paper surveys, Mobile surveys, Kiosk surveys, Telephone interviews and Face-to-face interviews to collect large amount of data. These surveys enable us to analyze huge data and make decisions on gathered insights.

Qualitative market research includes In-depth Interview, Focus Group Discussion, Ethnographies, Online Focus Group, Audio-Video recording and viewing facilities for the client. These type of market research gives in-depth understanding about people’s beliefs and point of views and what are the deciding factors that influence their behavior

Should I do my own market research or get expert help in?

A good number of companies also believe that they can conduct market research using their own employees. It is no doubt possible to learn a thing or two by questioning your friends and internal contacts, or having your existing employees conducting surveys about the product in concern, but there is a limit to the accuracy of this process. Customers are more likely to express an honest opinion about a particular product to a third and impartial party, than they are to express it directly to the company. Highly-skilled market researchers strive to make their study outcomes as unbiased as possible, this way, you get the correct data and can hence, make a proper plan for the future and tackle the issues in the current workings of the company.

Get in Touch

• Why conducting a feasibility study / business plan is important? A proper feasibility study can answer very important questions like: How much money should I (the investor or the founder) have access to in order to launch this business idea? What are the competitive risks that my target market has, and do my product/service have a chance to compete? What are the expected monthly and yearly costs to run my company or business? Where should I advertise and what should I use as my main appeal to attract new customers? What are the expected monthly and yearly profits of my business, are these profits suitable for the money I will invest? And finally the most important question, is this business worth my time and money? is it feasible and profitable?
• How are market insights data collected? It depends on the type of studied business, the needed consumer behavior insight and the target market dynamics. Each research project have its own methodology and challenges. We collect data using one or multiple of the following techniques: Computer assisted telephone interviews (CATI). Focus groups, at our office in Dubai or online (FGDs). Digital observational analysis. Field visits. Mass surveying (Digital or in person). In-depth interviews. Expert panels.
• Can I raise funds using the feasibility study you provide? All of our reports are certified and bankable, and can be used in fund raising from banks, venture capital firms, angel investors, private equity funds, government funds and all other types of investors.
• What languages do you offer your reports in? We provide our reports in either Arabic or English, and we can provide it in any other language you choose at an additional fee.
• How do I know if the sample size is big enough for accurate results? Our team of market research consultants come from specialized backgrounds in research methods and analytics, we structure and build ad hoc methodologies that specifically fit each project, insight, market and the practicality of obtaining that data. We have successfully delivered research projects with sample sizes exceeding 8000 respondents in nationwide scans, as well as small projects that only required two focus groups. We promise our clients to: Propose a research methodology that offers accurate results at the lowest costs possible. Not to exaggerate the required sample size in order to inflate the research cost, unlike many of our competitors.
• I have an established and existing business, how would market research help me? Conducting frequent and periodic market research to observe market changes, trends and new competitive advantages of your direct competitors is a must for a sustainable business. Our company offer periodic intelligence reports to keep a close eye on the market and all relevant players.
• Can you conduct market research for a new business idea that has no local competitors? Assessing the competitiveness scene for an untested and unvalidated market can be challenging, our consultants use a research method that validates the new business model based on its value proposition, we call this method "The pain points analysis" and we use it for all startups that aims to disrupt the market and compete using a brand new business model.

The Rise of the Responsible Consumer

We work so closely with our clients that they sometimes ask us to turn the lights out and lock-up when we leave - their offices, that is! But that’s ok; that’s just how we roll. We tend to get insanely passionate - not only about what we do, but also about what our clients do as well! The outcome of all this passion is inspired thinking and great decision-making, driven by intelligent insights.

We understand how rapidly client needs and expectations are changing. Marketing today requires seamless integration between the market insights, customer behavior, brand strategy, and communications. We have developed the organizational capabilities to support this through three specialists divisions.

The market-i journey began in Germany in 2007 when a team of seasoned research professionals came together to create an agency that could deliver and inspire their clients by answering marketing questions in a way that is intelligent, insightful, and actionable.

Rest assured we will accompany you on a journey to create great brands and drive business growth. We have developed research solutions for clients that address just about all critical stages of the marketing process. Whether using qualitative research, quantitative research, social media listening, or data analytics, we can develop bespoke solutions that help you make better business decisions

Our solutions cartography

The market-i solution space addresses marketing problems across 4 dimensions.

Any business actively developing and managing their marketing mix strategies faces common problems. From position to pricing to market expansion, we have solutions that help you make the best decision possible.

Social Media

Social media listening.

Our Social Media Listening programs provide brand owners to develop the lay of the online conversation landscape of their brand. By combining inputs from a host of tools, we can identify trends surrounding a client’s brand and key competitors, current brand sentiment, and key online channels of social conversation. By knowing what is being said and where it is being said, brand owners can develop initiatives to join the online conversation.

Increasingly brands have developed online communities through social media channels such as FaceBook or Twitter. These communities are an excellent resource for insights. We build programs that tap into these communities for various targeted research including online quantitative studies and even online qualitative studies.

Market Development

Market landscape.

We have successfully designed and implemented a number of research programs that size and segment a market place. A landscape research program will deliver clear insights into attitudinal and behavioral segments that define a product category as well as how key brand players compete within each segment.

Brand Health Management

Brand positioning.

Our brand positioning programs identify how key brands are currently positioned, key brand differentiators, key drivers of perceived differentiation, and brand positioning white space. These insights are crucial in developing a successful brand positioning strategy.

Brand Health Tracking

Our brand health tracking programs are multi-faceted. The programs comprise various research pieces designed to identify key business levers, create salient brand health performance indices, and measure client brand performance against key business levers benchmarked against a relevant competitive set.

Brand Compliance

Our brand compliance is driven by market-i Mystery Audits, which provide the ability to assess how well brand ambassadors such as front line staff, call center, and online staff deliver on customer service standards. Our online report delivery tools provide you with a highly granular look at brand compliance including location level, day-part, department, etc.

Brand Activation

Brand owners face the increasing challenge of genuinely connecting with their consumers. Our Activ8 process means working with clients to create truly inspirational relationships with their consumers, built on strategies that seamlessly integrate traditional and experiential marketing. This requires exploring a brand’s consumers deeply, to understand their passions in terms of emotional needs, how they experience them, what they do to create the experience, etc. Once the brand-consumer passion landscape is understood, powerful activation programs emerge naturally, whether it is sport or event sponsorship, company-owned events and promotions, or interactive initiatives

Advertising & Communications

Campaign pre – testing.

Our campaign testing programs will assess how different campaign elements combine to deliver your intended message to your target audience. Our assessment will tell you which elements are having the greatest impact on message delivery and which are not. Our diagnostics will provide clear direction for improvement to ensure your campaign delivers the right message and call to action to the right target audience.

Post Launch Effectiveness Measurement

Our advertising concept testing programs help you clearly identify if your message is being clearly decoded by your target audience. Additionally, we will assess message salience and diagnose which ad design elements are contributing to or detracting from the intended message.

Ad Concept Testing

Product development, concept ideation.

Our ideation research programs are designed to provide an in-depth category exploration, where we explore category usage, attitudes, and unmet needs. The outcome is an enumerated list of unmet needs that could be turned into product concepts. We typically work with our clients to develop a candidate list of concepts, including a concept description, a USP, tangible and emotional benefits.

Product Concept Testing

Once we have several candidate concepts we can deploy either qualitative or conjoint research methods to identify a short list of product concepts that can be converted into prototypes. Our programs can either deliver a “winner” concept with some form of reach & frequency analysis or a series of top performing concepts for final consideration.

Prototype Testing

Once final candidate concepts are converted into prototypes, we utilize large-scale quantitative research to assess the reaction and trial intent amongst a relevant sample of the target audience. Our analysis assesses impact.

Pricing Strategy

Price sensitivity.

Our price sensitivity tools include both psychological price sensitivity which identifies price ranges where consumers perceive a price to be so low as to doubt quality or so high so as to be “not worth” the money. We also deploy brand cross elasticity measurement, which assess how changes in one brand’s price affect purchase behavior across competitive brands.

Customer Advocacy

Customer satisfaction.

Our customer satisfaction programs are designed to identify key drivers of satisfaction, and measure brand performance benchmarked against key competitors. Our approach entails designing the customer touch-point model of your organization and then enumerating the relevant performance attributes for each customer touch point. Our analysis will prioritize key improvements by focusing those attributes that have the greatest impact driving customer satisfaction. Additionally, we create tracking barometers that can be delivered as continuously updated dashboards to key management via web based & smart device platforms.

Net Promoter Assessment

Integral to our customer satisfaction measurement programs is net promoter score measurement. Our approach is based on Frederick Reichheld’s theories on customer advocacy as a primary driver to business growth. Furthermore, we bolt on a driver analysis component that clearly identifies drivers of “willingness to recommend”, and brand performance benchmarked to competition. Combined with customer satisfaction measurement, our NPS analysis empowers our clients to decisively drive business growth.

Corporate Character

Corporate reputation measurement.

Increasingly brands must deliver across a number of stakeholder groups in addition to core target audiences. These include opinion leaders such as government, media, academia, employees, and general public. Ignoring anyone of these constituencies could have negative impact on a brand. Our Corporate Reputation measurement programs combine both an internal and external measurement of perceived corporate reputation. This approach allows us to identify areas of alignment and misalignment. Reputation areas of misalignment become key priority improvement areas.

Employee Engagement

Our employee engagement measurement programs segment employees into 4 distinct groups: Advocates, Potential Advocates, Job Trapped, and Defectionist. Our analysis provides a deep diagnostic in drivers of each group and what must be done to improve advocates. Furthermore, we assess Engagement disposition based on the theories of Timothy A. Judge whose empirical research concluded that job satisfaction is influenced by personal self-esteem, self-efficacy, need for control, and anxiety/neuroticism. The application of CSES to employee engagement research allows us to pragmatically assess satisfaction and engagement data with respect to employee disposition.

We deploy a wide array of research and analysis techniques to listen and understand your markets and customers. From traditional quantitative and qualitative research methods to advanced analytics, we are ready and equipped.

Qualitative Research

Focus groups & depth interviews.

Our qualitative research team can design and implement a wide variety of qualitative research methods including focus groups, depth interviews, triads, etc. Whether they be held in a viewing facility, in-home, or in office we can handle it. Our moderator team comprises both male and female Arabic moderators as well as Asian moderators, meaning that we can easily handle any nationality. Additionally, all viewed projects, can be supported by simultaneous translation, transcription, and audio-video recording.

Ethnographies

We offer a specialized qualitative method, which includes spending a day in the life of a target audience as they interact with a product category. Ethnography research is highly effective for identifying hidden behavior or attitudes a target audience may have with a product category or a brand, which is not easily articulated in a traditional qualitative research setting. We have successfully used Ethnographic research methods to support product development, communications, and brand positioning.

Advanced Analytics

Segmentation analysis.

We can deploy a broad range of segmentation techniques to help clients identify unique customer segments that can be targeted or developed. These include psychographic, behavioral, and needs based segmentation. The specific segmenting technique will vary but can include Discriminant analysis, factor analysis, cluster analysis, conjoint based cluster analysis, and CHAID.

Driver analysis

We can harness a broad range of statistical methods to assess the level of influence a broad range of attributes have on dependent variables or on each other. We utilize techniques such as linear regression, polynomial regression, structural equation modeling, and Hierarchical Bayesian analysis.

Discriminant Analysis

As an outcome of most of our large scale segmentation studies, we develop a Discriminant Function tool that can predict segment membership. Our DFA tools come in the form of a short questionnaire comprising 10-15 attributes that are used to predict which segment the interviewee belongs to. These tools can be embedded in a broad range of customer engagement programs and allow interactions with customers to be tailored to their segment profile.

Conjoint Methods

Customer analytics, data mining.

Where large transactional databases exist, we can deploy a host of knowledge discovery tools to identify patterns amongst brand customers ranging from purchasing behavior, purchase baskets, purchase demographics, etc. These methods can be used to segment customers and identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities. Additionally, they can be used to anticipate patterns and trends.

Quantitative Research

Whether you are looking for a traditional nationally random intercept, central location intercept, or event intercept, we have the field management team to mobilize, organize, and manage large-scale quantitative research. What’s more, we have the requisite quality control procedures in place, to deliver great data.

We harness the power of online quantitative research through a variety of panel partners within the region and globally. Additionally, we use online research methods to survey brand communities resident in Facebook or Twitter.

For large-scale customer opinion surveys where accurate contact databases are available, we can develop, host, and run telephone surveys. We have the ability to conduct telephone surveys across the Middle East and our telephone interviewers speak Arabic, English, Hindi, Malayalam and Urdu. Should specialized languages be required we can extend our telephone language pool to Mandarin, Tagalog and a broad range of European languages.

Introduction 

Dubai is a rapidly growing city located in the United Arab Emirates. With a diverse economy and a strategic location between Europe, Asia, and Africa, Dubai has become a hub for international trade and commerce.

One of the key components of the city's economy is its market research industry. Market research involves gathering and analyzing data about consumers, competitors, and the overall market to inform business decision-making. In Dubai, market research plays a crucial role in helping businesses stay competitive and make informed strategic decisions.

Market research can provide businesses with valuable insights into consumer behavior, preferences, and trends. By understanding these factors, businesses can create more effective marketing campaigns, develop products and services that better meet consumer needs, and make more informed decisions about pricing and distribution.

Overall, market research is essential for businesses looking to succeed in Dubai's competitive marketplace. In this blog, we will explore the current state of the market research industry in Dubai, emerging trends, key insights, and how businesses can leverage this information to gain a competitive edge.

Current State of Dubai's Market Research Industry

The market research industry in Dubai is rapidly expanding. According to a report by Market Research Future, the market research industry in the Middle East and Africa region is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 8.6% between 2018 and 2023, with Dubai being a major contributor to this growth.

The market size of the Dubai market research industry is estimated to be around AED 250-300 million ($68-$82 million USD). The industry is composed of a mix of local and international market research agencies, ranging from small boutique firms to large global corporations.

Some of the major players in the Dubai market research industry include Kantar, Ipsos, Nielsen, and YouGov. These companies offer a wide range of services, including quantitative and qualitative research, data analytics, and consulting.

One of the key drivers of the market research industry in Dubai is the growing demand for data-driven decision-making. As businesses in Dubai become more competitive, they are increasingly turning to market research to gain a deeper understanding of their customers and competitors.

However, there are also several challenges facing the market research industry in Dubai. One of the major challenges is the lack of standardized data collection methods, which can make it difficult to compare data across different studies. Additionally, the industry is also facing increased competition from alternative sources of market data, such as social media analytics.

Despite these challenges, the market research industry in Dubai is expected to continue to grow in the coming years, driven by the increasing importance of data-driven decision-making in the region's highly competitive business environment.

Emerging Trends in Dubai's Market Research Industry

As the market research industry in Dubai continues to grow, several emerging trends are shaping the way businesses gather and analyze market data.

One of the most significant trends is the impact of technology on market research. Advancements in technology, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, are enabling businesses to gather and analyze data faster and more efficiently than ever before. For example, predictive analytics can help businesses anticipate future trends and make more informed decisions.

Another emerging trend in Dubai's market research industry is the increasing demand for customized research solutions. Businesses are looking for tailored research solutions that are specific to their industry or target market. This trend is driven by the need for businesses to differentiate themselves in a highly competitive market.

The growth of online research methods is another key trend in Dubai's market research industry. Online surveys, social media analytics, and other digital research methods are becoming increasingly popular due to their convenience, cost-effectiveness, and ability to reach a wider audience.

Finally, the importance of data analytics and visualization is also an emerging trend in Dubai's market research industry. With vast amounts of data available, businesses are looking for ways to extract meaningful insights from this data. Advanced data analytics tools and visualization techniques help businesses make sense of complex data sets, identify patterns, and make more informed decisions.

UAE: Optimal Approach to Lead the Post-Pandemic Era

The COVID-19 pandemic had forced countries globally to postpone their economic activities, including the UAE.

The Arab world's second-largest economy recorded a 6.1 percent contraction in 2020 as tourism and oil became two of the most severely damaged sectors due to the global crisis.

The lockdown of mobility and international trade had put the region into its first recession since the financial crisis in 2009.

Tourism to Recover in 2022

However, the UAE's economy expects to vastly rebound as the region distributes vaccines to contain the spread of COVID-19. Today, UAE is among the fastest globally to inoculate its citizens, with 64.7 percent of the population vaccinated, or equivalent to 12.6 million administered vaccines.

The tactful measure of vaccine progression hopes to help jumpstart UAE's tourism while gradually restoring supply for future oil demands once the price stabilizes.

The plan to hold FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar would be essential in inviting tourists into the UAE and putting the region's tourism and hospitality sectors on the pre-pandemic level.

Government Approach

Aside from tourism and oil-focused accommodative measures, the UAE governments combined have spent over USD 395 billion to cushion the region's recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Among the many pandemic-induced approaches, one of the more significant was the Central Bank's Targeted Economic Support Scheme which provided a zero-cost loan initiative to improve the monetary traffic within the region until mid-2022.

This year, the UAE's credit growth improvement and positive spending would dampen the COVID-19 after effects, putting the region in a bright light seen through the government forecast of a 3.5 percent inflation.

Moreover, the increasing demand for hydrocarbon energy would also catalyze the UAE's growth as the third-largest oil exporter from the Gulf. The hydrocarbon industry is forecasted to answer over 6 million barrels per day by the end of this year.

Oil Uncertainties

However, the oil-driven region still faces the lingering concern of oil prices. 2020 has seen a 20-year low on oil prices that resulted in price wars during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Today, the cost of oil remains in the range of USD 50 to 60 per barrel, which is still under the required balance to the country's budget breakeven. Therefore, the prolonged pace of oil recovery puts the UAE in a challenging position to survive the instability of the sector.

All in all, the UAE has implemented a high caliber approach to obtain prosperity in the post-pandemic era - from riding the wave of digitization, facilitating demands of renewable energies as countries take on the pledge to reduce their carbon emissions, to optimizing the existing resources necessary for the region's rebound. However, the road ahead still poses challenges and concerns that public and private institutions need to tackle.

Market Research UAE assists industry players in identifying sustainable growth strategies within UAE's multitude of industries, providing a grip of understanding towards the opportunities and potentials beyond the surface level.

Our engagements usually range from market entry strategies, competitive benchmarking, channel model identification, market assessments, M&A, and partner due diligence--without limiting one from the other.
