9:15 a.m.-10:30 a.m.—Market
Research Basics for Small Business
Gregory Kohs, Director of Planning &
Analysis, Comcast Business
Many small businesses don't conduct
market research because they believe it is
the domain of only large companies, and
furthermore they don't have the time or
resources to do it properly. However, your
customers are willing to tell you plenty…
you just might not realize it and therefore
aren't capturing it in a systematic way.
Whether it is customer satisfaction, brand
image, or market share, data is easily col-
lected that can be used to guide you to
greater profitability – and all of which can
be done on a limited budget.
