Market Research
In addition to performing feasibility studies and comparative analysis to help you get a full and clear picture of the market, we design and use qualitative and quantitative research to measure market potential, sales performance and competitive analysis. We help you compile and analyze the market overview, cross industry performance analysis, profiling and sampling, and other necessary information for your company.


To provide practical insights in order to successfully increase penetration in existing markets and create branding, companies need current market information. The best market information comes directly from the market participants, not textbook resources. Calling to obtain market research data or to qualify potential target accounts is an art as well as science.

To get the information needed to maintain existing business, keep up with competitors, target new markets or opportunity niches, or just plan for their future, companies must keep current with changing market conditions. Market research is the best way to determine what direction a company should pursue to remain, or become, profitable.

Market research provides market information used to reduce uncertainty, allowing a company to make rational and effective marketing decisions to improve company profitability.

There are two major types of market research, desk and field. Both involve a systematic and objective process of collecting primary and secondary data. Our focus is on the first of the two. Primary data is facts obtained from first party participants about desired customers, markets, and marketing activities. This market research data forms the basis for market analysis used to make informed marketing decisions.

Some of the measurable variables in market research:

  • MARKET: Size, key segments, growth rates, key accounts, barriers
  • COMPETITION: Sales, share, pricing, strategy, strengths, weaknesses
  • KEYS TO SUCCESS: Strategy, product specs, pricing, sales channels
  • SALES CHANNEL: Current channels and market preferred channel
  • PRICING: Strategy, competitive pricing & discounts, customer value
AMG provides expert research according to your specific needs. This can include what we call snapshot research - maybe researching just a dozen customers. ...Or quickly scanning the marketplace for competitor products. Or whatever's likely to provide enough valuable information to drive further sales and marketing activities.
