Service obtainable market is the subset of your SAM [serviceable available market] that you will realistically get to use your product. This is effectively your target market that you will initially try to sell to. ... Identifying your SOM, or your target market, is an important step because building a marketing plan around your TAM [total available market] —in other words, everyone—is a huge waste of resources. Figuring out who exactly you think will actually buy your product will help focus your reach. 1, record 1, English, - service%20obtainable%20market
