Market research, intelligence & insight

for small to medium-size business

Competitive intelligence (CI) is normally thought of as a high-value business activity that is largely the province of large corporations and costly consultancies that track competitors, industry, technology and market trends. However, managers in all sizes of firms need competitive information to make informed decisions about their marketing and business strategies – even very small businesses.

We provide CI research for individual Business Owners and Economic Development Groups seeking to strengthen local competitiveness.

A key problem is that many small and mid size companies lack the time, money, skills or manpower needed to access costly information resources and assemble effective competitive information required for good decision making.

Entrepreneurs typically use our services primarily because they want to be more competitive – to increase their sales, improve their market share, and find new markets for their products or services.

Our experience and feedback from business tells us that there is a deep need to make competitive intelligence more cost effective and available.
