Before the launch of new services and products it is advisable to carry out a potential analysis to determine the acceptance of the new offer and to evaluate the market potential.
A potential analysis is based mainly on a representative enquiry of the target group. Not only can the existing general demand of a product category in any region be identified, but also the future demand for existing or entirely new porducts can be assessed quantitatively through a potential analysis. Sales forecasts for a qualified, accessible market can be quoted depending on marketing expenses. In order to address the new potential through marketing activities, a target group profile of the potential purchasers can be created and their used information sources can be detected.
