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.
