I would appreciate any suggestions on other types of market research or confirmation that surveying is a good method and also how many people we should survey to make our data credible.

Have you ever heard of The Local Index? It’s a new site that provides local businesses a free website to showcase their products & services. It works like myspace but for local businesses. I think it would be a great way for you to get the exposure that you are looking for. They also have a contact Importer to import current customers to your new store, with announcements to keep them updated on your business. Local Business events, networking events and a whole lot more.

The Goal of this site is to reintroduce the concept of local businesses to consumers as the hip, hot new thing. Instead of Pizza Hut, Walmart, Circuit City and Etc.

RYMA’s October 28th Webinar was presented by Jim Holland. Social media – its conversations and content have opened avenues to untapped audiences, unconstrained demographics and unbridled opinions. But lurking in the forest are all types of distractions, information and potential monsters that may lead you astray.

As product management, is there value lurking “where the wild things are?” In the forest of conversations, connections and content, should product management venture in search for insight on markets, users and perhaps competitive intelligence?

In this webinar, he discussed the viability of social media as a component to market research and intelligence, what approaches should be considered and what plans are required by product management and product marketing before going “where the wild things are.”
