| 87 | 2. How do customers typically find products like yours? |
| 88 | a) They search for it (e.g., 'soy candles') — they know what they want |
| 89 | b) They discover it visually — they see it and want it (lifestyle, fashion, decor) |
| 90 | c) They need to see it in action — demo/video is what sells it |

| 93 | (This affects whether retargeting is viable from day one)" |
