The proper work is market research, market research includes a lot of things from customer segmentation and competitor analysis to product research and product development. Market research is necessary not only for big enterprise and businesses, but also for small business. For a longevity of your business you need to follow certain procedures.

This is actually one very important deciding factors that business owners around here neglect when they want to start their own business. One very important thing about carrying out surveys is that it actually gives you a broad insight to what your customers want and what they might be expecting from your business. This is very important because the customers are the number one part of every business.

Survey is very cogent when it's comes to setting up a business. Doing or carrying out surveys gives you the ability to know your costumers even before you start selling things to them. It enables you to know the location that's solid for setting up your business. I think without surveys, a business can't be successful.

Taking surveys is really important when you want to start a business. A business idea is not enough to start a business, you need to also make a plan. And part of making a plan is taking surveys. This can be done through your observation or asking the people some questions. The survey will help you know the following.
1. The best location for the business - this is determined from the location in which your potential customers are more populated. But you should also consider where your suppliers are if you have them.
2. Customer preferences for the goods or services you will be selling - you will know how the customers wants your goods or services such as their packaging or the time when it is best to open your shop.
What other things do you get from taking surveys before starting a business?

Although it is not easy but doing research with a survey for a business is imperative especially for a product that is not popular. First to define is the market base. For example you are going to sell luxury shoes then it is not appropriate to open a store in the rural area for there might be no market base to speak of.

Taking surveys before starting up a business is more or less like putting down your plans in paper. It will help you in knowing what your potential customers really want. Therefore, you will be guided as to how you will work out plans on how your product meet the needs of the potential customers.
Survey is a very important thing to do periodically, but I wonder why companies in Africa don't value surveys. The one's that does it , want it for free

Taking survey should be inherent features of the feasibility studies. People should try and to go into research by taking survey on the business before embarking on it. Taking survey will easily allow the intending business owners the real target market and as well, it will give them the opportunity to know which size, brand and type of products needed at a particular time.

Running a survey before starting a business especially a lucrative business to serve the business, will give us the clue if what we're offering is worthwhile or not. That's why most businesses enters into surveys in order to get peoples response that concerns the product they're offering if its worthy or not. The more positive reviews from people will tell them they are doing well.

Taking survey before starting a business is very important indeed. If we don't put the location where we want to start the business in to consideration, it might affect the business. More so, the type of business must be considered too because the type of business will determine the which location will be best for it.
