01

Start with the offer

The entry question depends on the product or service, customer group and route to market. A clear scope makes it possible to examine demand and the competitive context together.

02

Study the route

Possible routes may include direct sales, a distributor, a local partner, a platform or a staged approach. The report should compare options against the client’s capabilities and goals.

03

State what needs validation

Public research can narrow the choices, but some questions need direct validation. A useful report makes those next questions visible instead of presenting uncertainty as certainty.
