Doing Business 2/04/10

Producer/Host: Jane Haskell, University of Maine Cooperative Extension

Studio Engineer: Amy Browne

Topic: How Do I Really Do Market Research?

What are some of the issues people need to think about as they consider marketing their business?
How do these issues roll into the basic concept of what marketing is?
How do people take the concept of marketing to become an action?  Or is there basic strategy that applies to just about every business – small, very small or even medium sized?
