market-research

Use when doing upstream market-research methodology — sizing a market as TAM/SAM/SOM computed BOTH top-down and bottoms-up (never a single unsourced number), planning a survey sample size with finite-population correction and per-segment minimums, or scoring candidate market segments against Kotler's measurable/substantial/accessible/differentiable/actionable criteria. Outputs always show the method and the assumptions. For market-research analysts and product-marketing at the sizing/survey/segmentation moment. Distinct from marketing-skill (campaign analytics, attribution, demand-gen) — this is the evidence-building methodology, not live-campaign optimization.
