What is the difference between primary and secondary research?

Primary research refers to original or custom research – gathering information from original sources. Primary research typically involves putting a customized approach and survey together to gather information for a specific need or marketing challenge. It is usually proprietary to a client and not made available to the marketplace.

Secondary research involves the compiling of information from existing or secondary sources. These sources can be internal or external. Internal might be your customer databases, historical files, etc. External would involve searches for published information. Typical sources include newspapers, trade publications, associations, industry reports and the Internet.
