Problem

Scenario

You are advising a company that is considering expansion into a new market. Leadership wants a clear view on whether the opportunity is large enough, attractive enough, and defensible enough to justify the investment.

Question

How would you decide whether a new market is attractive enough to enter?

What matters

  • Market size and growth
  • Customer pain and willingness to pay
  • Competition and differentiation
  • Unit economics and investment required
  • Strategic fit and defensibility

Decision lens

The question is not only whether the market is big. It is whether the company can win a meaningful share with acceptable economics and a strategy that strengthens its long-term position.
