Reflection on Research processes and the methods
I had chosen the research methods based on the study on the research problem and I
desire for exploring an in depth study so I selected qualitative method for conducting the study. I
had gained several experiences while doing the qualitative research. This method helped me in
understanding the qualitative characteristics in relation to the topic and acted as the most suitable
method as through this I could be able to focus more and more on the subtleties in the data
collected. As an approach and philosophy I had opted for inductive approach and the
interpretivism philosophy because it best suits to the qualitative research. Inductive approach is
been selected because it fuels for the further exploration as I noted that this reasoning begins
with the particular observation or an inferences which helped me in drawing appropriate
conclusions and in generating findings. I used interpretivism philosophy because it emphasizes
on making the qualitative analysis and through this I could be able to integrate interest of the
human within the study. I had also looked towards various publishes articles like books, journals,
internet, magazines as the secondary sources for gathering the data. This is been done for making
the study more useful and accurate so that other researcher can also make use of it for conducting
their study. Moreover, I developed the questionnaire for making the primary research that is by
taking the responses of the participants in order to get the first hand information. This source is
adopted for avoiding the chances of the errors in the study as the information is collected in
direct connection with the respondent.
Literature sources and strategy
My literature is been started by the watching the documentary relating to the research
topic that is Ethnic Tunisian restaurant that has the specialization in a specific dish that is called
as Brik. Thereafter, watching a documentary, I researched for scientific articles and the journal
that are peer reviewed by the author beginning with the overview of the industry in Malta and
appropriate use of innovation by different firms in Malta. I researched on the article for knowing
the growth rate of the restaurant, competitors and size of the industry. As per these assessment, I
decided for a unique business idea in which I had provided a review regarding the products and
the services, marketing mix and STP approach. From this I had learned about various theories
and the concepts in relation to the business model. The books and the scholarly articles helped
me in saving ample of time and the cost that I must have incurred in gathering the information
