1. Summary
PetTrak is a new tracking and location finding device product based on GPS (global
positioning system) and GPRS (mobile phone technology). Attached to the pets collar,
PetTrak is aimed at the cat and dog market. In addition to pet accessories owners spend
£215m per annum on pet healthcare and £1.6bn is spent annually on pet food. Mintel
point to a trend of cat and dog owners becoming increasingly anthropomorphic, meaning
they treat their pets like little humans. Mintel highlights that the trends in human food
consumption are being witnessed in the pet food market, for example organic and
provenance-assured foods are becoming prevalent.
The primary driver for owning a pet is companionship, and 81% of owners claim to treat
their pets as part of the family. However with our busy lifestyles we regularly spends
days and nights away from our companions, particularly cats who like to assert their
independence by roaming through the neighbourhood and beyond. It is, therefore, a cause
of great anxiety when a cherished pet goes missing.
Target Market
Target Market for security device is all families and people with age groups of 40+.
These kinds of age groups are those people who are living alone in their homes and have
to leave their animals away when they are out. These devices help to take good care of
the product as it contains real good time tracking device. Target Market can be young
females, working full time and of higher socio-economic groups. Their internet usage is
higher than average and their TV usage is lower. They are generally in one or two person
households. Dog owners show an even male-female profile, however they are owned by
lower socio economic groups. They are heavy TV watchers, light internet users and more
likely to be in family life-stage and therefore larger households.
Some important questions to be asked while doing the research-
1. Are your target audience male or female?
2. How old are they?
3. Geographic and demographic information about the customers.
4. What do they earn for living?
5. In case of luxury items, do ask the consumer how much money they make
2. There used to be a time when business owners marketing their products in age groups of
18-49 years of age, but now the mentality has changed. It’s a misconception to talk about
marketplace in any kind of general way. Decision lies these days in hands of marketing
managers to market their product region wise, gender wise, or lifestyle wise.
To get better knowledge about the business product, product managers sometimes
combine that with physical conditions related to age or personal lives. Today, the
consumers are smart and they don’t like to be fooled by marketers so the product
managers need to target the right audience.
