I own a small home performance business in Wisconsin. We have been fortunate to keep booked over the last 3 years by tapping into large contracts. As a result we have not had to spend much time on marketing or money on advertising. At the end of this year our current contract will expire and we will need to begin advertising to bring in leads and keep the schedule full.

I'm in the process of developing a marketing plan which includes identification of market segments and demographic, psychographic, and media consumption habits for each segment. This information should prove vital in shaping our advertising messages and selecting the right advertising to reach each market segment.

Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time finding hard market research data that defines HP market segments in any useful level of detail. Obviously markets will segment differently in different areas of the country but it would still be useful to read about HP demographics research in other parts of the country. Are you aware of any good HP segmentation studies, research or articles that you can post a link to?

A while back I read an article that presented statistics on percent of HP consumers who identified themselves by political affiliation and religion. It was quite interesting but now I can't find the article. Has anyone else read it? Can you help me find it again?
