Tracking Study of the Economic Promotion of the Masurian Lake District | Marketing Research

Preliminary Assumptions

On behalf of the Masurian Lake District Association, we conducted a tracking study of the economic promotion of the Masurian Lake District. The main goal of the study was to assess the effectiveness of activities within the nationwide informational-promotional campaign for the region under the slogan "Mazury means business." The organization of the promotional campaign stemmed from a project co-financed by the European Union called "7 Wonders of Mazury – economic promotion of the Masurian Lake District (KWJM)." Our specialists took on the task of measuring the effectiveness of these actions. The study concept included examining the effects of marketing activities and their impact on the perception of the Masurian Lake District in selected target groups.

Execution

We conducted the study using the tracking measurement concept – a method used to check changes in various social and market processes. The method involves multiple measurements of the same phenomenon at regular intervals using the same research tool.
 
We conducted quantitative measurements in three batches at equal time intervals. Through the use of CAWI, CAPI, and CATI techniques, we collected opinions from over 4,000 individuals who were the target audience for the promotional activities. The study allowed for gathering opinions among individuals representing eight distinct research groups:
 
  1. Local investors and potential national investors.
  2. Entrepreneurs in the Masurian Lake District.
  3. Residents of the Masurian Lake District.
  4. Polish and foreign students studying at universities in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship.
  5. Polish business tourists.
  6. Foreign business tourists.
  7. Polish individual tourists.
  8. Foreign individual tourists.
 

Results

The final product of the study was a research report, accompanied by a thorough analysis of the collected research material during the three measurement batches. The measurement results allowed for the verification of initially formulated research hypotheses.
The conducted study provided significant information in areas such as:
  • The level of recognition of municipalities contributing to the Masurian Lake District in various target groups.
  • Dominant components of the region's image.
  • The impact of promotional activities on changing the perception of the Masurian Lake District's image – an increase in associations related to the economic and business character of the area.

  • Perception of the quality mark awarded to local entrepreneurs.
  • Local entrepreneurs' willingness to engage in the economic promotion of the area.
  • Local entrepreneurs' sentiments regarding employment, wages, investments, and export activities.

Based on the collected research material, our client gained the opportunity to implement corrective actions regarding the ongoing promotional activities of the Masurian Lake District, ensuring they fully contribute to achieving the set goals.
