Big business would rarely go to market with a new product (or even a new marketing campaign) without conducting market research. You may not have the same deep pockets as the corporates, but you can conduct your own market research with great effect.
Large international brands know that the market for each of their products and services is unique, with different customs, competitive pressures and customer expectations depending on the demographics and geographic location of their prospects.
This is true for small businesses as well. The needs and expectations of your various target markets can differ substantially.
Investing in market research does not have to cost thousands of pounds and be out of the reach of small business, and neither does it need to be overly time consuming. Even done at low cost research can be very effective and will give you a better understanding or your customers and prospects.
