Yet CRM techniques dramatically reshaped conventional approaches including market studies, consumer panels, and focus groups in the way to comprehend and apprehend buyer behaviors: This first evolution was the beginning of a much stronger wave of changes. Indeed many consumer analysis paradigms fall apart as it is possible today to measure opinion trends in real-time on dedicated websites such as « Ciao! », « Facebook», or «Twitter ».

The web offers many useful resources to complement your research and intelligence on Consumer Insight: social networks, blogs, trend analysis web sites,…
This Red book presents a panorama of Internet information sources about Consumer Insight.
