How to Define Your Target Market
“Given the current state of the economy, having a well-defined target market is more important than ever. No one can afford to target everyone. Small businesses can effectively compete with large companies by targeting a niche market.
Many businesses say they target “anyone interested in my services.” Some say they target small-business owners, homeowners, or stay-at-home moms. All of these targets are too general.
Targeting a specific market does not mean that you are excluding people who do not fit your criteria. Rather, target marketing allows you to focus your marketing dollars and brand message on a specific market that is more likely to buy from you than other markets. This is a much more affordable, efficient, and effective way to reach potential clients and generate business.”
4Ps to choose your target market for entrepreneurial success
“By defining your niche, you’re also forced to really understand every detail about your business offering (product or service), which includes its benefits and unique features, who can benefit from the product offering and what sets you apart from your competitors,” says Mjadu.
“Once you know this, you should have a far better idea of who it is you are trying to sell to, which will allow you to be far more selective in your approach.”
“To run a fruitful online business, you first need a solid online target audience to cater to. Without those people, there’s no one to see or care about your products and services, much less purchase them. That’s why expanding your reach and visibility is essential to reach your growth objectives.”
“A target market is a group of customers for which your products and services are aimed. It’s usually first defined by an industry.
For example, if you’ve created a B2B Software product that helps remote construction teams, you’d probably focus on other companies within the construction industry. After all, that’s who you designed the product offering around.”
