The Market
Muhtasari
Every business operates within a market, but not every market looks the same. Some are crowded with dozens of competitors fighting over price, while others are quiet niches where a single specialist thrives. Understanding how markets work, who the customers are, and where the opportunities lie is the starting point for every commercial decision a business makes.
In this lesson you will explore what defines a market, how businesses measure its size and their share of it, and why dividing customers into segments unlocks smarter marketing. You will also compare mass-market and niche strategies and examine the ways firms compete to win and keep customers.
