'Business Toolbox' from Statistics New Zealand
Business Toolbox is a free, online tool for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It contains two online tools: Market Mapper, which can be used to find target markets and potential customers, and Industry Profiler, which provides details on industry performance over time, staff turnover, and survival of similar-sized businesses.
For example, by using Industry Profiler businesses can search for their particular industry and view information such as survival rates and new and ceased businesses by region over the last five years. They will also be able to view average employee earnings, and total jobs filled in the industry.
The interactive Market Mapper could be used by a small business to easily create a density map of their target customers. Users will be able to create a population density map by selecting a number of characteristics, such as age, income, household composition, and family type.
