1.0 Introduction

1.1 Background Of The Study

information and reliable data the bedrock of any management decision they also from the basis for all the diagnostic and prognostic effort of managers from marketing stand point problem can only be anticipated identified analyze and resolved or prevented if accurate and reliable information can be obtained from both internal and external sources.

This overriding importance of marketing information is so obvious that every trained marketing manager make deliberate efforts to generate analyze and use information system are concerned with information gathering.
According to the America marketing association (AMA) marketing research is the systematic gathering recording and analysis of data about problem relating to the marketing of goods and services. A major weakness of this definition is that it implicitly ignores the fact that not only marketing researcher analyze and solve problems that the identify them.

Secondly, it has been criticized for not being clea on the end of goals of marketing research. A short but acceptable definition sees marketing research as of formalize decision. Taken together these two definition which reveal the nature and scope of marketing research.

Firstly, they show that the purpose of marketing research is to aid in marketing decision it may help to identify marketing problems and opportunities available courses of action in resolving the matter.
Secondly, it is a formulized or systematic means of obtaining the needed information. Thus the process is neither accident haphazard but deliberate and organize it is systematic in the sense of following a defined and three tested procedure. Thirdly following closely from the second observation is the fact that marketing research is seek objectively.

In so doing, the marketing research process aim at being scientific in the sense of findings out what is although the information so generate is expected among other things to help determine what should be.

In focusing on any other marketing related issues marketing research may help in problem identification structure of people equipment and procedures together sort, analysis, evaluate and distribute perineum timely and accurate information for use by marketing decision makes to improve their marketing planning implementation and control.
When compared with the definition of marketing research given earlier the difference becomes obvious.

First where as marketing research gather and analyze needed information on an adhere non-recurrent basis a marketing information system is installed to do this on a regular basis.

Secondly, it has also been suggested that while marketing research focuses on information generation, marketing information to marketing decision makes.

Thirdly, it would appear that while marketing research is more of a curative medicine a marketing information system is both curative preventive.

Finally, marketing research is a part and parcel of an organization marketing information system since the latter is much broader is scope.
