How can I make a market sizing case presentation? What are the key things I should include?

Case: how many people play golf all around the world at 2PM at UK time

So I'll start with the world population is approximately 8Billion 

so if we assume X of the world is our same time or has morning right now. How can I assume that percentage?

Hello!

I would always recommend you to give it a shot and then post it here, this would help you the most. 

This is a very typical market sizing case, where the key steps are: 

Calculate the total population

Calculate the % of population that could be interested in this product (this could be done by clustering -the classical ones are age groups, purchaching power, etc.-)

Calculate the % of the total adressable market that any firm in particular could have -in case it´s asked only-. 

Hope it helps!

Cheers, 

Clara
