Hi all,
Riding on a previous post on estimating the global jewellery market size. I would love to hear your feedback on another attempt to estimate the China's jewellery market size, for example.
Is it very rarely that the market sizing question would be focused at a global level, rather more at a country level? Say if the question is revised to estimate the jewellery market for China? What would be your feedback on the below approach?
1/ China Population
2/ Share of Rural / Urban population (rural population may have less access and would spend much less per year, can we safely assume they are negligible even after considering online channels?)
3/ Urban population by income (like you mentioned, is it better to segment them into high, middle, low income segments rather than into exact income range? also can I safely neglect low income segment)
4/ Divide urban high income and middle income population by male / female, find average of spend by income group, assume high income male would purchase the same amount as high income female if not more (through gifting to their partners and family members) and assume middle income male would shop less then middle income female (occassional gifting)
5/ Multiply average spending with the segment population by income level and sum them up = total market size Would you say there is another approach to estimate the market to serve as validation?
Thank you :)
Thank you very much Ian! Very helpful! :)
My pleasure Ellen!
