By Jacques Murphy No publisher jlouie product management Market Analysis leadership 2007-08-15T20:53:27Z Page http://www.pragmaticmarketing.com/resources/ask/research-for-b2c-product I am currently a Product Manager in a start-up company. My experience before this has been in B2B software. I am now faced with a B2C product, brand new from the ground up. The company does not have the budget to do primary consumer research so I've been doing secondary research and my own primary research but I can't reach a statistically significant sample in any reasonable amount of time. Can you recommend any techniques to be the voice of a market of consumers on the cheap?

I'm now interested in expanding my market focus to include "potentials" to better understanding why we're not on their radar, what types of problems they're experiencing and what types of solutions they need. Do you have any ideas on how I can identify these prospects, reach out to them, get responses and work with them in the most effective manner?
