TBK Consult releases a new Ideal Market identification tool

Dec. 14, 2012 - PRLog -- Software-driven companies struggle when they decide which market to approach next. Will Germany, the US, the UK, Brazil, Sweden, Turkey, Australia or China provide the fastest return on investment? With the new Ideal Market Profile tool from TBK Consult, software-driven companies can now set the priorities based on a set of objective criteria.  

Companies with growth ambitions all share the challenge of deciding which market(s) to approach next. As penetrating any additional market is associated with considerable investments and uncertainty, using a fact-based process for the selection can help accelerate the return on investment and mitigate the risk. The objective of the Ideal Market Profile tool and service from TBK Consult is to help software companies define a framework and a process for selecting the most appropriate geographical markets for expansion and growth.

“We get these questions again and again”, says Hans Peter Bech, CEO of TBK Consult Holding ApS. “Software-driven companies must expand globally, but have a very hard time making a rational choice of markets. The prioritization of international markets is really tough if you don’t have any information available and also don’t really know what to look for. The choices made become erratic and random and the consequences of making the wrong choices can be very costly indeed. We believe our new tool and service can help many software-driven companies make the right selection of which market to approach next.”    

The Ideal Market Profile is a description of those characteristics which are considered important demand indicators for the product in question. The Ideal Market is a market with a high density of Ideal Customers. The Ideal Market Profile will normally include the 10-20 most important characteristics, which will indicate a high density of Ideal Customers, an acceptable level of competitive pressure and an infrastructure available to operate the value chain.
