Market research in Chile, Latin America and LATAM: quantitative, qualitative & specialized studies across 10+ countries.
Surveys
Online, CAPI tablet & CATI phone. Structured questionnaires from n=50 to n=5,000+. Representative by region, SES, age, and category consumption. Programming in Qualtrics, SurveyMonkey, or custom platforms.
◈
Product Testing
Blind & identified product tests: taste, texture, packaging, price fairness. Monadic, sequential monadic, or comparative designs. Central location or in-home usage.
◈
Public Opinion
Nationwide and segment-specific opinion polling. Face-to-face, telephone, and online. Political, social, and consumer sentiment tracking with rapid turnaround.
◈
Focus Groups & In-Depth Interviews
Full-service: recruitment, venue (physical & online), moderation, and analysis. Standard, mini-groups, triads, and creative workshops. Native moderators across LATAM.
◈
Ethnography
In-home, in-store, and workplace observation. Video diaries, shop-alongs, and accompanied purchases. Real behavior, not self-report.
◈
Communities & Diaries
Private online communities (MROC) and structured diaries over days/weeks. Continuous insight generation for sensitive topics or iterative concept development.
◈
Hard-to-Reach Targets
Healthcare: physicians (MDs), patients, caregivers, and payers. B2B: procurement, C-level, IT decision-makers, industry specialists. Proprietary databases and snowball strategies for low-incidence profiles.
◈
Ad-hoc Methodology
Standard designs rarely fit real problems. Over dozens of studies we've built novel, original methodologies blending qual, quant, and digital — tailored to each research question. If it doesn't exist, we design it.
◈
Social Listening & Digital Analytics
Conversation analysis across social media, forums, and review sites. Sentiment, emerging topics, and competitive intelligence. Brand mention tracking and influencer mapping.
◈
Deep vertical experience where methodologies need to adapt:
Healthcare
From patient journey studies to physician concept tests. Full ethics & confidentiality protocols for sensitive conditions.

Market research is the process of gathering and analyzing data about consumers, competitors, and the market environment to make a business decision with less uncertainty. It validates concepts before you invest, sizes opportunities, explains why customers buy, and measures experience.
There is no list price: it depends on the methodology, sample size and type, geographic coverage, how hard it is to reach your target audience, depth of analysis, and delivery timelines. We quote the study after understanding the decision you need to make.
In 5 stages: (1) define the business question, (2) design the methodology and questionnaire or guide with its sampling plan, (3) run fieldwork with quality control, (4) analyze data with statistics and AI, and (5) deliver actionable recommendations, not just a report.
Qualitative explores the why behind behavior with few participants and deep insight: focus groups, in-depth interviews, and ethnographies. Quantitative measures the how much with a representative sample (from n=100 to n=5,000+) and a known margin of error, projectable to the universe.
A scoped qualitative study can be delivered in a few weeks. A quantitative study with a broad national sample takes longer because of fieldwork and supervision. Timelines can be compressed at an additional cost.
