During business start up funding is often a problem but early market research saves the company money and minimises the risks of failure. Research highlights opportunities and challenges at the planning stage and may well reveal a demand for goods or services not previously considered. And of course market research is a vital part of any business plan presented in support of a grant or a bank loan.
