At I2, we do not attach ourselves to any single source of
information or methodology. This enables us to maintain a
superior level of transparency and objectivity. We pride
ourselves on offering the broadest set of primary market
research methodologies and over 20 years of expertise in
finding and using secondary data.
We ensure that every qualitative interview we conduct
is fully digested and transcribed into an Excel grid.
The grids include direct quotations from research
participants and all ticks and tallies collected
during the interview. These grids streamline the
analysis process and allow us to collate findings in
an efficient manner.
Example: Qualitative Interview Grid
We also support all of our qualitative findings with
direct quotes from respondents. These quotes play an
integral role in our final reports and can be presented
via audio clips and/or in writing.
Example: Physician Interview Quotations
At I2, we provide clear and comprehensible deliverables which highlight the
most relevant and important findings. We incorporate market size, product
adoption, potential market changing events, and other relevant factors to
create comprehensive forecasts that provide the revenue forecasts and NPV
estimates our clients need to be confident in their decisions.
Example: Patient Volumes Analysis
Example: Market Sizing Analysis
Example: Product Adoption Analysis
Secondary Information Sources
I2 frequently uses secondary information sources to
supplement primary research or for separate
analysis or consulting efforts to meet the wide
range of insights our clients require, including:
Targeting
Using sources such as IMS’ physician-level prescribing
data or Nielsen’s sales data, I2 helps clients
identify target markets.
Prescribing data can be used to help create physician
segments, allowing I2 to identify target physicians
based on the prescribing data.
Market Trends
Syndicated reports, analyst reports, and
publications from industry associations
can help identify broad market trends
that are difficult for individual
respondents to quantify.
Research on market trends can be
particularly useful when assessing
potential acquisition targets or
assessing how future market
events will affect our clients’
products.
Market Sizing
Forecasting requires estimates of
the market size to effectively
gauge a product’s potential. I2
will frequently use secondary
data, alone or in combination
with primary research findings,
to size a target market.
