3 Ways to Know Your Market
One of the basic criteria in funding startups is knowledge of the target market and customer. Size of market, growth rates, and segmentation are components the entrepreneur should know well. Let’s look at three ways to know your market better:
Web
The first place to look is on the web. First, identify which industry(s) you’re in. From there, you can find out several facts and details about your target market size. All it takes is a little bit of research.

Know what trade associations and conferences are related to your market.
