Question:
We targeted followers for our second product in the Vodite Market. Its name was NUA. We were not the only team who targeted them. (Followers- These individuals represent the bulk of potential consumers. Because they perceive more risk in buying new products, they adopt a product innovation only after a large number of consumers have tried it. Innovators and early adopters particularly influence followers. Their income level is usually below average)
During both periods (7-9) We performed well . Commercial teams for vodites ranged from 90 to 105 for specific products. Other team had two products that were both in about 90+ stores. We had 60.

My hints for you;
I just need you to write one page long essay about which marketing principles we used to SUCCESSFULLY target the segment- The followers. You can use principles ( first mover advantage, market forecasting ( predicted substantial growth in the follower segment) Managing resource tradeoffs
You can write an essay talking about the barriers for entering a new market, how we assessed if we wanted the first mover advantage and benefits of waiting to enter.
