Describe their purchasing process as well:

• What does the decision-making process involve?
• What sources of information do they seek?
• What’s the timeline for their purchase?
• Who actually makes the purchase?
• Who or what influences the purchase?

And finally, provide market size estimates for those included in your target market.

• What is the largest possible market if everyone bought?
• What percentage actually bought from you in the past?
• Given the current timeframe for the plan, how much growth do you think is possible in the next year and longer?
