Your tailor-made market study, 10x faster
The first essential step for the success of your project
This story could soon be yours📜
This is Anaïs’ story. Anaïs is a dynamic young woman ready to launch herself into the world of entrepreneurship as an independent administrative assistant . Like many entrepreneurs, Anaïs begins her project with a lot of enthusiasm , but also with a lot of questions : How to organize your business remotely? Where to find your first customers?
For her project, Anaïs is supported by France Travail. Her advisor recommends that she send out a questionnaire by email to her prospects.
“I admit that doing a questionnaire by email discourages me a little… I had already done a questionnaire and I had very few responses.”
Following this traditional method, the answers are rare . And she realizes that this approach is not effective . She feels stuck and she begins to doubt her ability to achieve her goals.
That’s when Anaïs crosses paths with Didier and FormAssista. Didier gives her some very important advice: selling your services is not the key, what customers are really looking for is a trustworthy person to help them with their daily questions.
Anaïs then adopted a new strategy : meeting her future clients in person. Thanks to the Smappen map that Didier provided her? Anaïs was able to determine her prospecting area around her home, accessible within a 25-minute drive.

Why is a market study essential for your project?
Understanding demand and the market
The demand for your product or service will define the future of your business. You need to learn about the trends and characteristics of your niche. Independent market research allows you to anticipate the behavior of your consumers and competitors. Thus, you can adapt your offers accordingly.
Identify your customers
You will be able to segment your market according to different criteria: sectors of activity, number of employees, services, turnover, etc. You will thus understand their specific needs and propose better solutions.
Analyze the competition
A market study will allow you to evaluate direct and indirect competition. You will seek to know their positioning, their strengths, their weaknesses, their marketing strategies, their prices… And thus identify opportunities to offer a unique value proposition.
Making the right choices
Your market research will provide you with objective information about your market. You will be able to make informed decisions about the development of your services, marketing strategies, distribution channels, prices… And you reduce uncertainties.
Your market study made easy✨
You’re ready to start your new business, but you’re facing a mountain of uncertainty. You don’t know where to start to understand your market and identify your potential customers.
Every day that goes by without effective market research is a missed opportunity. You’re making decisions based on assumptions, not hard data. And that’s costing your project dearly.
Like you, Anaïs was lost at the beginning of her journey. She had tried to understand her market by herself…but it didn’t bear fruit. Then, we sent her her tailor-made Smappen report.
Thanks to this report, Anaïs was able to obtain detailed data on her catchment area , identify the companies to target and understand the specific needs of her future customers.
Imagine yourself in the same situation. With Smappen , you have all the information you need to succeed . You will know exactly where to focus your efforts , which companies to approach and how to adapt your offer to the needs of the market.

Paule Bouithy
As a subcontractor, it is a pleasure to work with FormAssista. Trainers and learners are perfectly supervised and supported. Every question results in an answer, listening and trust are the pillars of collaboration. The learner is at the heart of the training and everyone contributes to providing their expertise in a balanced manner. It is an excellent training center.
Stéphanie Dumas
I did the business creation training and Laure and Manon were great, they answered all my questions and by the end of the training I had all the cards in hand to get off to a good start. They are professional, they know their job and this training is more than complete. I was hesitant to start but the training is covered by the CPF and I absolutely do not regret having registered, quite the contrary. If you need to do training for your company, I recommend FormAssista without any hesitation.
Marie-Laure Capizzi
This training is very rich in information and covers step by step the steps to take to start with peace of mind as an independent secretary. I really appreciated that the trainers shared their experience with us and allowed us to have a very realistic vision of the profession. I recommend this training without hesitation!
Claire P.
The Business Creation training is suitable for anyone with a project. The content and assessment exercises are of good quality. The trainers are very available and friendly, which facilitates discussions during the training course. I congratulate them for this initiative to pass on their knowledge to future telesecretaries!
Cathy Chicard
I followed the training to create an independent secretary business (funded by my CPF) and I am fully satisfied with it. The trainers are very professional and very pleasant. The supports are of quality and well structured. It was a real plus before starting my adventure as a micro-entrepreneur. I thank them very much! I recommend!
Ni Ni
I did the independent secretary training in September, I recommend it to anyone wanting to become an independent secretary. I really recommend doing it before starting. It is a complete training course which is done in small groups over a week and the trainers answer all our questions and give us very good advice. They are very professional. Don’t hesitate to contact them or visit their site!

The “creation of a special independent secretary business” training is very comprehensive. All stages of this creation are studied. This training exceeded my expectations.

Very comprehensive training which gives us all the keys to fully succeed in our project. Thank you again for your help, guidance and support. I recommended their training organization without hesitation.
Marion Baux
It is a very complete and well-structured training course on the profession of independent administrative assistant. This training with its limited number of participants (max 6 trainees) allows for individualization and very constructive exchanges, with two competent and professional trainers. I recommend this training.

I took the social media training in September. The trainer is top notch, educational, caring, the teaching will help me find clients. Serious organization, I recommend!
Georges-Alain Guilloteau
This training is essential. It's a gold mine! Before starting a business, we ask ourselves all kinds of questions to which we don't know where to find the answers! I am delighted to have participated in this training. In addition, Laure and Manon are adorable and are there for you. So if like me, you don't have the answers to all your questions: don't waste another moment, register!

I participated in the training on cloud tools and I learned a lot of things that will greatly simplify the way I work. Stéphanie, the trainer, is very educational and attentive. We were able to deviate a little on other subjects that concerned me. I highly recommend.
