Final Point Without Introducing Market Analysis

You will create a target market analysis for the new product for the pet supply company. Describe in detail the target market of the pet supply store, including the demographic, geographic, and psychographic details. Describe the needs and wants of this target market and how this new product will satisfy one or more of these needs or will appeal to a want of the target market.

Using the template provided in which you conduct a target market analysis. This analysis should focus on the new product the pet supply store is selling, not the company itself. It should provide information about the demographic (age, marital status, education, income, etc.), geographic (physical locations), and psychographic (personality, values, opinions, attitudes, interests, and lifestyles) of the potential target market. Based on this analysis, you will then need to discuss the needs and wants of your target market and how this new product will either appeal to a want or fulfill a need.

Format of the Assignment

Notes on APA in a Formal Assignment

  • Paragraphs should be at least three to four sentences.
  • Do not include the headings “Introduction” and “Conclusion.” These are included below to help you lay out your paper. APA format assumes the introduction begins the paper, the body continues the paper, and the conclusion wraps up the paper, so those headings are not needed.
  • Be careful not use personal pronouns such as “I.”

    • Introduction
