Focus Group Discussion is a research method often used in marketing research. Focus Group Discussion is a method of qualitative research in which a certain number of participants meet with a moderator to discuss their views on a pre-selected topic. Participants are identified depending on the topic and scope of the research. Group discussions are held with a total of 7-8 participants. Depending on the purpose of the research, mini-groups of 4-5 participants can be organized.

Focus Group Discussions last from 1.5 to 2 hours. Gifts are given to participants for coming to the meeting. 

In order to get the desired results from the Focus Group Discussions, participants must participate for the first time and a quota must be applied in accordance with the research criteria.

The results of the assessment are presented to client on DVD. When needed, it is translated simultaneously.

In order to select participants, participants are surveyed face-to-face or using the CATI survey method with pre-defined filter questions.. Then the appropriate participants are selected and invited to the discussion meetings. The experienced moderator addresses the questions according to the purpose of the research and discusses the opinion of each participant individually.
