1. Propose a series of at least three consumer research studies (in tandem) which you may recommend Mr. Venkatraman to follow before launching the shampoo he has in mind for the Indian market.
Use the sequence of studies in the Montreaux case as guidelines.
Present your proposed research studies in chart form, indicating for each study:
i. Title
ii. Objectives
iii. Type of research (primary v. secondary / qualitative v. quantitative) and the rationale for recommending it
iv. What you expect as an outcome of each study (for instance, 20 options enter this step, I expect to choose the top four, and use them in a next step; or, simply choose the winner).

- The three organizational (or team) domains
