Our Approach to Product Testing Research
Based on decades of combined experience, our new product development process is designed to provide actionable insights into customer preferences and perceptions. We utilize a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to identify strengths and areas for improvement, ensuring that your product is well-positioned for success in the market.

Meeting Your Project Team
Start by requesting a quote from our product testing research company. We’ll quickly provide an estimate of the project’s cost and workplan based on your objectives, methodology, and target audience. Once we receive sign off, your dedicated project team hosts a kickoff meeting to discuss the study’s details, timelines, and responsibilities.

Designing the Research Tool
As a full-service market research company, Drive Research specializes in surveys, focus groups, in-home usage tests, and other new product development methods. Whether it be screener survey questions or a focus group moderator’s guide, we create custom questions to answer your most pressing business challenges.

Analyzing and Reviewing Results
At the conclusion of the study, we review participant feedback to uncover key insights related to your product and usage. Finally, our project team presents the research findings and provides strategic recommendations so you know exactly how to take action with the insights collected.

Online Surveys
For online surveys, we work with both B2B and B2C companies to conduct their quantitative product testing research.
We can scale and right-size a research project to reach just about any type of respondent possible in the market and can scale feedback to sizable sample audiences to ensure our results are both reliable and relatable.
Our full-service survey components include comprehensive project management, custom-written questionnaires and design, sample and respondent sourcing, programming and field management, data analysis, and reporting.

Focus Groups
Focus groups are a good idea for product testing because they provide a platform for in-depth discussions and qualitative insights.
This approach helps companies gain a deeper understanding of consumer behavior, refine product features, and make informed decisions before a product is launched to a broader market.
Drive Research can manage each aspect of a product testing focus group including qualitative recruitment, facility hosting, moderating, and reporting.

In-Home Usage Tests (IHUTs)
IHUTs (In-Home Usage Tests) can be highly useful for certain products. They involve providing consumers with a product to use in their own homes, allowing them to evaluate its performance and usability within their typical environment.
Participants provide feedback on their experience whether it be in-person or through digital solutions.
Our team has extensive experience recruiting, managing, and executing IHUTs so that companies can directly understand their product while it’s in the hands of their customers.

Ongoing Product Testing Research
While post-launch product testing may not seem needed for organizations, it is beneficial to help understand the current state of the market.
Seeing changes in sales figures or movement among competitors in the market may be indicators that another product test is warranted.
Whether it be monthly, quarterly, or yearly, ongoing testing is great for innovation, gaining competitive advantage, reducing costs, and improving profits.
