Market Development Strategy
Product details
Market development is a growth strategy that involves selling your existing products or services to a new group of customers. It starts with market research, during which you will analyze the segmentation of your existing market, make a list of those market segments that you should develop. A segment is simply a smaller subgroup of a larger population. To determine your target market segment, you must consider factors such as new geographic areas, new demographic segments, new customer needs, customer preferences, interests, and lifestyles. You can look at customers that your competitors usually serve or customers that no one currently serves. Once you identify the target segment, you should create a promotional strategy and find ways to attract and sell to customers within it. Key market development strategies that you could focus on include pricing, distribution, branding, promotion, product development. Pricing allows you to implement a competitive pricing structure with offers and discounts, or, to charge a higher price, provide a product with more value than a competitor. Distribution empowers you to develop new channels to reach target customers. For example, selling online if you currently only have a regular store. After that, you can create a new brand for products that target a target market or a specific segment of customers. When moving to promotion, you might consider tailoring your advertising messages to attract customers with offers, coupons, loyalty schemes. Product development allows you to modify an existing product or develop a new one for an untapped market. As well as attracting new customers, market development also looks at expanding sales through new or alternative uses for your product. Think about how you can get your current customers to use your product in a new way.
