Hey Nick,
I always found the net the best place to do research.
One tip I can suggest is not to stick to one particular search engine.
Some search engines are better for researching business...
e.g.
www.dogpile.com
I always found this one to be good for searching businesses in the US.
There are also alot of sites that deal with trends and markets in different parts of the world e.g Africa of Middle East etc.
Try searches geographically and don't stick to just google.....you will find alot of different leads to the info you need.

Hiya,
I have found newpapers very good particularily the Financial Times. Marketing trends always seem to tie in with current share prices of the big media and other firms.
I think you can get headline business news for other countries too but I'm not sure the best way to get them.  The internet is probably your best bet !  |
