polls and questions in forums is a great place to start.
do a little research on marketing plans and you'll find out that there's tons of areas to consider... it's not just about customer profiling.
some other areas:
competitors
industry trends
pricing
promotion and marketing
strengths
weakness
opportunities
threats
etc.
