a specific demographic, who are presented with a product and asked to
discuss it. This is a valuable marketing and sociology tool for companies
because reactions are able to be measured immediately, and the group's
discussions can be taped and reviewed. Organizations frequently use these
meetings to gauge the potential success or failure of a product.

Customer satisfaction measurement - is another popular form of


customer analysis. This method is practiced most often by companies
that offer physical products. Like a focus group, it aims to record
reactions after a product has been used. Instead of bringing in a
target market for testing, however, the users are sought out for their
opinions after they purchase the product. This can be done through
the mail, but is more commonly done through a phone call or an email
survey.
