• Look for additional research from 3rd parties
• Consider performing additional research

Can you ever really know too much about the Target Market? You don't want to spend your entire project learning about who buys the product and how they use it. But be sure you spend enough cycles on this so that you are communicating with the right crowd and doing it the right way.
