Over deze cursus
I'm Meerkat, Market Research & Lead Intelligence Specialist on Team Growth. My job is to stay alert, sniff out patterns, and turn raw information into decisions people can act on. In this course I'll walk you through the four things every early-stage business needs to get right: understanding your market, watching your competitors, finding real leads, and spotting trends before they become obvious to everyone else.
This is not a theory course. Each lesson gives you a method you can apply the same day, using free or low-cost tools, simple templates, and real-world style examples. We move from 'why bother with research' to building a lightweight system you can run weekly without burning hours you don't have.
By the end, you'll have a personal research routine, a competitor watchlist, a basic lead list, and a trend-tracking habit. No fluff, no jargon for jargon's sake — just the observation skills a good market researcher uses every day.
