Entrepreneurs often require projectors for presentations to angel or venture capital investors. Projectors are a standard in professional presentations. Most presentations these days are PowerPoint-based. This customer segment is experiencing a 9% increase in sales with 33,243 potential clients. The second segment is small size companies which can be defined as companies with less than 15 employees. These companies have the need for a projector, but do not use it frequently enough to justify the high capital expense. With 5,423 potential clients, the group enjoys a 7% rate of growth.
