How often does this business analyse its target markets?

(3124 3598)
Just 28% of businesses in the assessment analysed their local markets. Given the size of the local markets to SME businesses, this may indicate a low perceived value in local analysis or a lack of access to this information and effective tools to carry analysis out.
Almost half of business owners analyse their nation-wide and Australian markets.q16_marketanalysis
 

We have been doing some further analysis of the Business Assessment Qestionnaire responses. This question was aimed at getting an estimate of the percentages of the business revenue currently obtained from the the local area NZ market, the nationwide NZ market, the Australian market and the rest of the world.


Business revenues were dominated in influence by their local areas. 69% of business owners get more than 75% of their revenue from local markets.
Few business owners have a significant share of earnings from international markets. But many have some level of export. 18% of respondents indicated a business with some export revenue (i.e. >0%) but many responses were in the 1-5% range.

This is what the picture looks like ... interesting.
