Visualizing a Total Addressable Market Segment’s Whitespace

  • Updated

Once you have created a market segment, you can visualize companies or people and add lists of your current companies so that you can identify your market segment’s whitespace.

The whitespace in your market segment is the unexplored list of companies available in InsideView, which is pulled when you add a list of your existing customers. The whitespace shows size of opportunities that are available in your segment. This whitespace can be quite helpful for you to find the right companies for business dealings.

Here’s how you can visualize a market segment:
