NEGOTIATIONGeneral research common to business or consumer markets:
Consider what other categories might apply to your market. Each market will have its own specialised characteristics apart from the general ones listed for each customer type.
Look to see if there is a potential target group that has just one of the characteristics listed for business or consumer markets. This could define your specific target group.
