Hi there,

To help you learn in the best way, why don't you make a proposal first and post it here? We can then give feedback on it.

Feel free to contact me directly if you need support with market sizing questions.

Hi, 

I'm thinking this can be broken into the following issue tree (high-level):

Step 1: Total number of salmons sold in a year x avg. price of a salmon

Step 2: (calculating the number of salmons sold): # consumers x avg. consumption of salmons in a year 

Step 3 (calculating the consumers): World population x penetration rate 

Step 4 (avg. consumption calculation): Avg. fish consumption  x percentage of the average fish consumption is salmons 

Step 5 (Avg. fish consumption): Divide into frequent, less frequent and non-fish eaters to find the average

Resonating with other coaches - why don't you give it a shot yourself and paste a sketch in the question? We can then critique it and give feedback.
