After presenting results, you need interpret them in an appropriate way.

For those who applied interviews (1000 words)

business field?...) to help your reader better understand your sample.

Then, you should create themes to present the key points of your results. Each theme
is followed by at least 1 paragraph of interpretation, and the quote from the transcript.

results with existing literature (similar or different, how?).
