Most businesses make big decisions on thin evidence - which market to enter, how to price, who they're really competing with. I turn that guesswork into research they can act on with confidence. I'm Michael, a market research consultant and former Deloitte Consulting researcher with 10+ years of experience. I've helped startups raise $18M+ and supported Fortune 500 teams launching products that generated millions in revenue. I deliver Big 4-caliber insight faster and more affordably. My work holds a 100% Job Success Score and Top Rated Plus rating across 30+ projects: market sizing, competitive intelligence, go-to-market strategy, feasibility studies, and the research behind funding rounds. ๐‡๐Ž๐– ๐ˆ ๐‡๐„๐‹๐ โ€ข ๐Œ๐š๐ซ๐ค๐ž๐ญ ๐’๐ข๐ณ๐ข๐ง๐  & ๐“๐€๐Œ ๐€๐ง๐š๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ: Precise estimation of Total Addressable Market (TAM), Serviceable Available Market (SAM), and realistic market share to support data-driven expansion and revenue planning. โ€ข ๐‚๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ž๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž ๐ˆ๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž & ๐’๐–๐Ž๐“ ๐€๐ง๐š๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ: Comprehensive competitor benchmarking, market positioning analysis, and structured SWOT assessments to identify opportunities and risks. โ€ข ๐†๐จ-๐“๐จ-๐Œ๐š๐ซ๐ค๐ž๐ญ ๐’๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐ฒ ๐ƒ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ๐จ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ: End-to-end GTM planning including positioning, pricing insights, channel strategy, and customer acquisition frameworks tailored to your target market. โ€ข ๐‚๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ๐จ๐ฆ๐ž๐ซ ๐’๐ž๐ ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง & ๐๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง๐š ๐ƒ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ๐จ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ: Data-backed segmentation of target audiences and development of detailed buyer personas to improve targeting, messaging, and product fit. โ€ข ๐ƒ๐ฎ๐ž ๐ƒ๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž & ๐ˆ๐ง๐ฏ๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐‘๐ž๐ฌ๐ž๐š๐ซ๐œ๐ก: Rigorous market and industry research to support venture capital, private equity, and M&A decisions.
