Potential market is the part of the total population that has shown some level of interest in buying a particular product
or service.
Market potential is the total demand for a product in a given business environment
• Consider every target demographic that you currently sell to, as well as those you have not yet targeted. Identify
what they have in common with each other, new milestones that they will encounter in their lives that will
impact their buying patterns, and where they overlap or diverge from your current customers.
Ask yourself these questions that will help you identify both new ways to market your current products or services, as
well as new products and services that you can begin selling.
For example, a business that makes face masks and PPEs could identify potential markets such as:
Hospitals and other health related industries whose employees are prone to COVID -19 virus and other viruses.
Business industries and other organizations who want to ensure the health condition of their employees.
Employees and workers who need to report to work to earn income.
Households who needs to go out for their necessities
Once you've identified and chosen a potential market to begin targeting, you will need new marketing strategies in place
to communicate with them. Use this profile to identify:
Target Market
- Refers to a group of potential customers to whom a company wants to sell its products and services. Target
markets are generally categorized by age, location, income, and lifestyle. Defining a specific target market allows
a company to home in on specific market factors to reach and connect with customers through sales and
marketing efforts.
Penetrated Market
- A set of customers or clients who are already using a particular product or service. A penetrated market means
that the potential users of a product or service are aware of it, and in many cases are active consumers of it.
The size of a potential market helps a company understand the level of investment it should make further in the market,
while taking into consideration other factors. If the potential market is very small, it means there is a very small fraction
of the total population showing any interest in the product or category. This means that it is better that the company
doesn't invest further in the product or category because people won't buy it. If the size of the potential market is large,
it means that there is a huge fraction of the total population which is showing interest in the product, so further
investment can be made on the product development or modification, marketing, promotions etc. The size of the
potential market gives an estimate of what all a company should do and how much it should invest
1. Need
➤ A motivating force that compels action for its satisfaction. Needs range from basic survival needs (common to all
human beings) satisfied by necessities, to cultural, intellectual, and social needs (varying from place to place and age
group to age group) satisfied by necessaries.
A driver of human action which marketers try to identify, emphasize, and satisfy, and around which promotional efforts
are organized
2. Market
➤ A Market is a place where two parties can gather to facilitate the exchange of goods and services. The parties
involved are usually buyers and sellers. The market may be physical like a retail outlet, where people meet face-to-face,
or virtual like an online market, where there is no direct physical contact between buyers and sellers (Kenton, W. &
Boyle, M., 2020).
A market does not refer to a particular place but it refers to a market for a commodity or commodities. It refers to an
arrangement whereby buyers and sellers come in close contact with each other directly or indirectly to sell and buy
goods
A market is any place where sellers of particular goods or services can meet with buyers of those goods and services. It
creates the potential for a transaction to take place. The buyers must have something they can offer in exchange for the
product to create a successful transaction
Prospects: People who have not yet purchased your product but are considering it.
Target market users: People in your target market who are not currently looking for a solution.
The market now demands that your business align to their needs. In order to properly align your marketing efforts and
your content, in particular to what buyers need, you have to have a clear understanding of the many intricacies, pains
and pressures within your market.
To achieve such alignment, the ability to define market patterns, needs, interests, preferences, etc. for a comprehensive
view of the buying process is critical
Consider whether the business offers a new solution to an old problem or complements an emerging trend.
Have a clear picture of your target market.
Determine the benefits that your product or service offers.
Examine industry data that can confirm whether there is a sustained, growing demand for your product or service.
Identify the percentage of market share that it is realistic for you to capture. The more competition you have, the
lower the margins will be.
Consider how realistic your pricing is. How can you present your product or service to potential customers so that it
appears to be a good value, while still affording you a healthy profit?
Identification. Read and analyze the statements below and identify whether this refers to potential market, available
market, target market, or penetrated market. Write your answer in the space provided.
