Trends spotting
One of the secrets of success in the business arena is to spot new trends while they are created. Business organizations aim to adjust their products
specification, development, and marketing activity before new trends are
adopted by the wide public.
It is difficult to spot trends by traditional marketing research
methods. Even those researches which are conducted among relevant and well
defined population are not a sufficient solution, since only small portion of
the population understand trends and capable of identifying them, while they
are still in an early stage.
Nimanix methods are more suitable for trends spotting. New trends are
identified by the trade patterns in the arenas. Trends associated values are
continuously being presented, and may point the different stages in trends life
cycle, starting creation till adoption by the wide population.
Potential trends are traded, in the
arenas, by participants who were mapped according to their ability to spot
trends. The predictions, derived from the trade executed transactions, also take
into consideration the status of each and each trader who participated in the trend
spotting process.
