Quantitative Research
Studies designed to produce numbers you can defend, with the sample built around the tables you intend to present.
What is quantitative research, and does QGM run it in Oman?
Quantitative research measures. It uses structured questionnaires on designed samples to produce numbers that can be compared, tracked and defended. Quantum Gulf Marketing designs and fields quantitative studies across Oman, including consumer satisfaction programmes running to a thousand interviews per wave across a full branch network. The discipline that matters is sampling: a number is only as good as the frame it came from, which is why our census and outlet mapping work sits underneath our quantitative practice rather than beside it.

Numbers that survive scrutiny.
Start from the tables
We ask what you intend to present, then size the sample so every cut in that plan carries enough interviews to be reportable.
Design and pilot
Questionnaire scripted, translated and piloted with real respondents. A question that fails in the field fails silently.
Field to quota
Quotas monitored live so the achieved sample matches the design rather than being weighted into shape afterwards.
Analyse and report
Significance testing where comparisons are made, weighting disclosed where applied, and findings written against the decision.
Common questions
How large should the sample be?
Do you weight the data?
Can you run tracking waves?
Do you do significance testing?
Can quantitative and qualitative be combined?
