A survey is created in a form to collect data, in which questions are asked in a predefined order. Questions can be asked verbally, and readers reply the same way back. A marketing experiment is a form of marketing research that can be created or treated like a test or investigation. It’s an exam that can discover new solutions or opportunities for businesses.

   The main difference between a marketing research survey and a marketing experiment is that a survey is a method of gathering information regarding a specific variable under a study from a group of respondents. Well, a marketing experiment is more of a scientific method, where a variable undergoes a study to test a hypothesis. Descriptive research is used in surveys when a marketing experiment is experimental research. When it comes to sampling, surveys usually done in large groups when experimental is done in relatively smaller groups. Surveys’ are also a form of field research, and experimental is laboratory research. Observations, questionnaires, and interviews are considered marketing research surveys, and different readings and series of experiments is more marketing experiments.
