"The methods used in market research are as diverse as their key issues. The wrong methodology, which is often not recognized, leads to distorted results and thus to wrong decisions in the company.

As part of my professorship, I am constantly working on methods, their reliability and, above all, their suitability for practical use.  Based on this knowledge I would be happy to conceive the optimal analysis for your issue - pragmatic, action-oriented and with the aim and the methodology of the scientist. Important decisions require reliable information."
