Picture

Most of the time people want to know if what they have will sell... who, how many, how much, how long and how often!

If you are looking for a 500 page report, with all due respect, keep looking. I find very few projects of this sort have such a complex answer that it requires several trees to provide a report. If something is that complex, the result is typically a very expensive 'we're not sure and it depends'.

You tell me what you are interested in researching, and I give you a strong facts and opinion based on solid research and conversations with experts in the field. I have put together due diligence reports for VC firms, product oriented research for vendors, potential market data detailing companies and the players impacted by a potential technology and solid, credible data for firms looking for funding. My projects usually last several weeks to a few months and deliver manageable reports with solid opinions based on vetted information.

market & sales research
  • Fee structure is a daily or hourly rate
  • Market research can be short overview of a particular market and its sales potential or more in-depth and long term. For example, venture capital companies have asked me to drill down into a market for a 'quick and dirty' report... typically 5-10 pages containing researched info along with 5-10 personal interviews. This type of report cost $5K-$10K. Other projects are more complex and require drilling down to acquire the right information and then validating what I find. These in-depth market projects can last several months; let's discuss and see how much time it will take and what kind of budget you will need to consider
  • Sales research is typically an overview of a particular market and its players. You may be interested to know the top 25 companies in a market, drill down to the most important people within those organizations who would be most affected by your product (or service) and why they would likely purchase (or not) your product. Add to this market sizing, likely sales cycle and potential competitive technologies and companies. These market projects can last several weeks or months depending on depth (how far do I drill down per account) and breadth (US market only... or global) of coverage; let's discuss what you are looking for and I'll give you an estimate as to how much time it will take and what kind of budget you will need to consider
