One of the simplest principles of good business is to immerse your marketing and sales efforts into your target market. Lacking hard statistical data for this micro market, I will convey my personal business experience in Logan Square.
Look at the growth of the ever-popular Logan Square Farmers Market on Sundays—the number of strollers and families in the neighborhood, the rapid growth in premium artisan restaurants and retail stores (which continue to maintain long waiting lines). These are strong indicators that the Logan Square market is growing rapidly and is far from peaking. For these reasons, the opportunity and timing to enter Logan Square with your business is ideal.
