Territory Market Studies
RSR produces territory market studies for manufacturers’ representatives, sales organizations, and other companies whose business is limited by geographic boundaries. Clients typically request territory market studies to quantify the market potential of a new product or a new territory.
These studies are unique because competitors are sales organizations rather than manufacturers. Understanding the competitive landscape, therefore, involves learning about the capabilities of particular selling organizations and understanding the purchases and preferences of customers in a particular territory.
