Define the customer group clearly
A broad audience is difficult to evaluate. Start with a narrow segment and ask how many people or businesses fit the profile, how often the problem appears, and how urgent it is.
Check ability and willingness to pay
Market size is not only about population. It is about the number of people who care enough and have enough budget to pay for a solution.
Study alternatives
If people already pay for substitutes, competitors, workarounds, or manual solutions, that is useful evidence that the problem has economic value.
Match market size to ambition
A small market may support a strong niche business. A larger company usually needs a larger or expandable market. The right answer depends on the kind of business you want to build.
