Methodology

Segmentation

• Creating the hypotheses by doing the web search, by studying the various websites consisting of relevant information to Coffee. This selection of websites is based on the most popular websites s per ALEXA.com . We had also done random search on Google.

• Identification of the sizable market for the selected hypotheses.

• Size determined will help us to decide the segment or the community that can be targeted.

Alexa.com Rankings

• Top Coffee places under Drink category
• Top Coffee places under Beverages category

• Once the segment to be targeted is identified, we can also search for the various ways to reach the targeted community using various promotional tools.
• This is can be done by developing the Value Adding (Unique Selling) proposition to the targeted segment.

• We will test some of the above Hypothesis for the following aspects:

1. Size of community
2. Places where these communities get together for specific events
3. Size of potential congregation during such specific events

1. We have defined operas as acts that involve dialogs and music.
2. Symphonies, and other solo performances like comedy acts by Robin Williams are considered targeting a different community.

• Methodology:

1. Under this category we first found out opera companies. Once identified the companies we had ranked them on the basis of the capacity of audience it can accommodate.
2. After ranking them, we had further broken the data on the basis of the events scheduled incoming months.
3. The production from these opera companies were further classified based on composers whose acts are being rendered by them.
