Since China has not implemented market economy for a long time, and marketing theory has been introduced to China for less than 10 years, companies have not realized the importance of market research and analysis for a long time. Many companies have stayed in the "three shots" stage until now, with one shot of their heads for decision-making and two shots of their breasts for assurance, and three shots of their thighs will regret. Many business leaders' decision-making lacks the support of basic market information analysis. They mainly rely on the ability of individual entrepreneurs to make decisions based on their experience and subjective judgment and market intuition, which seriously affects the development of enterprises. With the intensification of market competition, more and more companies realize that only by rigorous market research and analysis can they "know oneself and know the other, and never hesitate to fight". The importance of investigation and analysis is receiving increasing attention from enterprises and society. Investigation analysts have emerged as a profession and are moving towards the forefront of the market.
Currently, investigating analysts have officially become a new profession recognized by the Ministry of Labor. It is understood that in 2005, the annual turnover of the world's survey and consulting industry reached 23 billion U.S. dollars. In contrast, China's annual turnover was only about 5 billion yuan. In the next few years, the market gap of survey analysts in China will be more than 1 million.
The future employment prospects of survey analysts are very broad, and the gap between supply and demand in the market is very large.
