An important lesson from the economic downturn is that it pays to know your market. A thorough understanding of customer profiles, needs, motivations and levels of satisfaction will ensure efficient use of limited marketing budgets and the best possible experience for customers. With the new season fast approaching, now is the time to plan for research.
