1 Define your research goals and questions

Before you start collecting data from your customers, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to learn and why. Your research goals and questions should align with your project objectives and scope, and help you validate or invalidate your assumptions about your customers. For example, you might want to find out how your customers perceive your current value proposition, what are their main challenges and motivations, and how they compare your solution to alternatives.

3 Recruit and segment your participants

To ensure the validity and reliability of your research, you need to recruit and segment your participants according to your target market and customer personas. You want to include a representative sample of your existing and potential customers, as well as some outliers or extreme users. You also want to segment your participants based on relevant criteria, such as demographics, behavior, or needs. This will help you identify patterns and differences among different customer segments.

4 Conduct and document your research

Once you have your participants ready, you can proceed to conduct your research according to your chosen methods and tools. You need to prepare a script or a guide for your research, and follow ethical principles such as informed consent, confidentiality, and respect. You also need to document your research process and results, using notes, recordings, transcripts, or screenshots. You should organize and store your data in a secure and accessible way.

5 Analyze and synthesize your findings

After you have collected enough data from your customers, you need to analyze and synthesize your findings to extract meaningful insights. You can use different techniques to analyze your data, such as coding, categorizing, or visualizing. You should look for themes, patterns, gaps, or contradictions in your data, and relate them to your research goals and questions. You should also synthesize your findings into a concise and actionable summary, using tools such as personas, journey maps, or value proposition canvas.

6 Communicate and apply your insights

The final step of conducting customer research is to communicate and apply your insights to inform your value proposition. You need to share your findings with your project team and stakeholders, using clear and compelling formats such as reports, presentations, or dashboards. You should highlight the key insights and recommendations that support or challenge your value proposition, and explain how they can help you improve your product or service. You should also test and iterate your value proposition based on your customer feedback and insights.

This might be the biggest place where businesses fall short - not trusting the data, not believing what current and potential customers are saying about your brand/product. It’s totally acceptable to have pride in what your business is offering, but the moment you decide you know what’s best for your customers, specifically when that means going against what your research and data reflects, then you’re simply no longer speaking to your customers. And when you’re not speaking to your customers, that’s when your competitors are.

Always keep the customer at the centre of this. If you understand your customers needs and wants, then applying the information to any value proposition is easy. Make the process as simple as possible for them to get on board and this will benefit not only them but the business also.

This is a clear and concise approach, I would like to add, for a 'close the loop' phase with customers, to let them know how their feedback was put to use and outcomes.
