Markets are constantly changing - from fluctuating financial conditions to ever shifting trends - as a small creative business it’s more important than ever to regularly re-evaluate your target market to help you maximise sales.
Through interactive exercises, research assignments and discussion this two-part session will help you to gauge the size and potential of your market, gain a clearer picture of your customers and competition, and locate the right routes to market for your products. It will also help you to identify market opportunities for your business and, in doing so, enable you to develop new collections and ranges that meet market demand.
WHAT YOU’LL GAIN
· Understanding of market research tools
· Ability to use market research techniques on an ongoing basis
· Confidence to analyse findings and apply these to your business
· Solid market knowledge specific to your business and sector that you can implement as part of your marketing strategy and business plan
· Free worksheets and templates to help you plan your marketing strategy.
Who’s it for? Designer-makers, both emerging and established, who are looking to update their market research. It will be just as relevant to those of you who are embarking on market research for the first time.
