Research MethodologyOverview
• Research Design• Research Sample• Research Measures
![Page 10: Presentation Draft V1.0 20091218](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/54829013b4af9f4c1e8b474e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Research MethodologyResearch Design
• Quantitative research• (Web-based) Self-administrated survey• Drawbacks:
– Low response rate– May not be too long or complex
![Page 11: Presentation Draft V1.0 20091218](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/54829013b4af9f4c1e8b474e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Research MethodologyResearch Sample
• Address Database ‘Groningen Province’ and ‘Groningen Municipality’
• Total of 18 addresses obtained• Discussion on the network site LinkedIn with the
request to fill in our web-based self-administrated survey
![Page 12: Presentation Draft V1.0 20091218](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/54829013b4af9f4c1e8b474e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Research MethodologyResearch Measures
• Intelligence dissemination: MARKOR (Kohli & Jaworski, 1993), 8 statements on a five-point Likert scale
• Customer acceptance: Ledwith & O’Dwyer (2009), 4 statements on a five-point Likert scale
• Control variables: Firm size and firm age

ResultsOverview
• Survey• Descriptive statistics• Correlation• Regression analysis
![Page 14: Presentation Draft V1.0 20091218](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/54829013b4af9f4c1e8b474e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
ResultsSurvey
• Response rate on written survey: (2/18*100 =) 11,11 %
• Reasons:– Short time to respond
(TNT)– Quality of the questions
• Of the 12 returned surveys, 2 had to be deleted due to missing values
• Three other surveys (from LinkedIn) had to be deleted because the organizations weren’t entrepreneurships or innovative

ConclusionOverview
• Conclusion• Implications• Limitations
![Page 20: Presentation Draft V1.0 20091218](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/54829013b4af9f4c1e8b474e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ConclusionConclusions
• Base model: All variables are significant• Hypothesis 1: Not supported by the multiple linear
regression, but supported by the single linear regression
• Research Question: How do SMEs use market knowledge as a resource in understanding their market’s needs in order to be more innovative?
• First part answered by the literature review in chapter 1.3
• Second part answered by the correlation and regression analysis

ConclusionConclusion (2)
• In summary:– By improving knowledge management system and
market knowledge acquiring, sharing between departments and among employees, will improve the market orientation described as intelligence dissemination, which in turns improves the innovative capacity, specifically customer acceptance

ConclusionLimitations
• Simple size and response of the survey• The LinkedIn sample• Questions about departments• Only a small part of the conceptual model was
tested– Future Research should focus on
• The other relations in the conceptual model and on the • External validity of the model
