Why estimate potentials?
![Page 5: Measuring Market Opportunities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062310/5681682d550346895dddcab5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
How to estimate potentials
• Often relies on:• Assumptions.• Published data (industry publications, gov’t
sources).• Variables that correlate closely to market
potential.

Market Potential
• MP=N x P x Q• MP=market potential• N=number of possible buyers• P=average selling price• Q=average number purchased by each buyer

Example: What’s the market potential for CD’s?
Assumptions:

Area Potential
General Sales and Marketing Management buying power index:
Area potential = 0.2 x (% of area population) + 0.3 x (% of area retail sales) + 0.5 x (% of area disposable income)

Sales Potential
• Market potential x potential market share
![Page 10: Measuring Market Opportunities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062310/5681682d550346895dddcab5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Forecasts
![Page 11: Measuring Market Opportunities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062310/5681682d550346895dddcab5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Planning Assumptions
• Forecasts are based on assumptions about:• customer behavior • past and planned product strategies • competitor actions• the environment
• Forecast a range of possible outcomes

Subjective or Judgment-Based Forecasting Methods
• Naïve extrapolation
• Sales force composite
• Jury of expert (executive) opinion

Customer-Based Forecasting Methods
• Market testing
• Market surveys

Regression
Sales = b0 + b1(time) (base + trend)
Sales = b0 + b1(advertising) + b3(price) + b4(competitors’ prices) + b5(competitors’ advertising) + b6(disposable income)

• Leading Indicators

Estimating Market Share
• Market share index =product awareness x (70%)product attractiveness x (65%)intention to buy x (60%)product availability x (60%)product purchase (50%)
= 8%

Market Development Index
• What’s the potential for the market to develop?
MDI= current market demand maximum market potential
![Page 20: Measuring Market Opportunities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062310/5681682d550346895dddcab5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Interpreting MDI
• MDI < 33• Considerable market growth potential.• Can grow market with high prices and basic
benefits.
![Page 21: Measuring Market Opportunities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062310/5681682d550346895dddcab5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• MDI 33-67• Growth is possible, but need to offer more
product variations and lower prices; expanded distribution.

• MDI>67• Still room for market growth, but more
difficult.• Need very customer-focused solutions.
