Location & Local Population What do your customers want? What is your production like? In Scale & Diversity Diversity of products A B vs. Volume Produced 2
3 What is your production like? In Specialization The more specialized your product, the larger a market area you may need. How far are they willing to go to get it? How far are you willing to go to sell it? Location & Local Population What kind of customers are around you? How many of them are there? What is your visibility? What do your customers want? Local food buyers: Who are they? Try to understand your target customers to best serve them. Three Main Groups of Local Meat Buyers Foodie/ Locavore Enthusiasts- experience driven. Personal Health/ Social Cause Motivated- cause driven. Traditional buyers- price driven. Each has different: Needs Motivations Desires Buying habits 3
4 How do they buy & where? Foodies Adventurous. Least price sensitive. Seek authentic eating & shopping experience, story behind the source.

5 Market Channel Selection: Opportunity is knocking Meat CSA Home-based Retail (farm store) Freezer Trade Farmers Market Restaurant Grocery/Specialty Store Regional brands How do you evaluate a market opportunity? Six interacting factors impact the performance of a marketing channel including: You can sell $500 worth per hour! Price & Profit It costs $300/day to sell there. Lifestyle Preferences Associated Costs and its only 1 hour per week... and it takes 12 hours to prepare... Sales Volume Labor Requirements and if it rains no customers come. Risk LMCAT Factors HCW Equivalent Price Whole carcass demand, % demanded Sales Volume Lifestyle Preferences Labor Required Risk 5
6 The Moving Target Which channel is best? One channel does well in one way, poorly in another so how do you know? Methodology Collect logs of all marketing labor (from trip to processor to final sale) for X # of head, for X # of weeks. Collect weights & prices of cuts for 1 typical head. Collect gross sales & mileage for the period. Collect ranking on lifestyle & risk. Methodology Use data to rank and compare channels: Profit/head HCW price % carcass demanded Labor hours required Sales volume Also use farmer ranking for : Risk perception (financial risk, lost sales, etc ) Lifestyle preference (enjoyment, stress aversion) 6
