Market Survey is a technique that falls under the umbrella of Market Research. Market survey is often referred to as market research or analysis. It is productive in gaining insight into the target market by investigating customer’s interest in a particular product or service.Â
A market survey gathers information on the market that is not readily available in its internal or external record in the sales forecasting method. Generally, a company conducts a market survey when they want to collect primary data to predict the market demand.Â
In situations when a company is launching a new product/ service or when the business is initiating new business, a market survey is used to forecast the potential demand or sales. The market survey comes in handy when the company has to collect information directly from the customers since there is no previous record of it.Â
Obtaining feedback directly from the target audience, the market survey can help understand the needs, expectations, and attitudes of the customers. The process of market research involves determining the features of the product that the audience will incline towards. The research confirms the success of business strategies.Â

Moreover, a market plan with the requirements and the affordability of the audience also contributes to the success.
