What is Market Share Research?
Market share research answers "Who sells
how much of a certain type of product or service?"
The Benefits of Knowing your Share of the
Market
Market share shows which company's products
and services are bought the most and who are the closest
competitors in term of sales. Market share information is most important to
determine whether your products or services gain or loose
sales against competitors.
Market share information is critical to any
company because it allows companies to:
-
adjust competitive offerings and thus
improve revenues, customer base and brand value
-
better plan its business, marketing and
sales activities
-
make product line and market decisions
-
select and evaluate
channels
-
adjust promotions and
advertising
Market Share Research Methodology
To establish the market share of a specific
manufacturer's product or service, primary information is
obtained from manufacturers, vendors and customers through
interviews and / or surveys. Market share research is
primarily concerned with the top players in their respective market.
Market share research can be performed for a
single product or an entire product line within a single or a
segmented market.
Research Options
Market share research
together with competitive research provide the tools for
benchmarking your company's competitive performance. Market share research is
most often
performed together with market sizing.
