John Poole of Oakham Research was interviewed by Mark Williams on local Stourbridge radio station 102.5 The Bridge on Friday 3rd October. 
John explained the difference between different forms of market research and the reasons why organisations spend money on gaining insight. “Successful Market Research can make a massive difference to the performance of a business. Understanding your customers is a key requirement in order to ensure that your product or service is fit for purpose. Most customers don’t leave due to price or cost, customer satisfaction is the main driver for retention” John stated.
