“I’m looking for a noncommittal source of
trend forecasting to improve my growing
business/expand my current design knowledge.”
[the creatively-focused student]
“I’m looking for an easily accessible source
of trend forecasting that is user-friendly
and visually stimulating for my design
needs.”
[both are looking for]
A source of networking to expose
themselves; a communal conversation
providing feedback & commentary
what other segments did we consider?
trend forecasting site focused on fashion {only}
larger clientele willing to pay fee
why not?
larger clientele segment is highly saturated
fashion {only} limits market size & growth opportunities
cost would exclude part of the market
