Answer to Question 1

Applied marketing research is conducted to address a specific marketing decision for a specific firm or organization. It is relatively specific, and an example might Wendy's fast food restaurant trying to determine if its new veggie burger will be successful.

Basic marketing research is conducted without a specific decision in mind, and it usually does not address the needs of a specific organization. It attempts to expand the limits of marketing knowledge in general, and as such is not aimed at solving a particular pragmatic problem. For example, a marketing researcher might study the effects of music on consumption in a restaurant setting.
