Decisions deserve better than a hunch.

Agency market research starts around £2,500 and climbs fast, which prices most local businesses out of knowing their own market. I do the same discipline of work — competitor analysis, market sizing, modelling — at a price an SME can actually justify.

  1. 01

    Competitor analysis

    Who you're actually up against, what they charge, where they're weak, and which of their customers are winnable.

  2. 02

    Market sizing

    How big the opportunity really is, locally and honestly — including when the honest answer is "smaller than you hoped."

  3. 03

    Modelling & analytics

    Scenario and turnaround modelling on real data. For Alive Network that meant a Monte Carlo model run over ten million iterations.

  4. 04

    Positioning recommendations

    Not a data dump — a recommendation. What to charge, who to target, what to say, and what to stop doing.

A real engagement

Ten million simulations, one clear recommendation.

For Alive Network — a national entertainment marketplace — I built a Monte Carlo turnaround model and translated its output into a twenty-two slide strategy deck the business could actually act on.

Why an engineer for this?

  • The modelling is real: code and statistics, not a consultant's gut feel in a nicer font.
  • Ten million iterations means the recommendation comes with a distribution, not a single hopeful number.
  • And if the answer turns out to need software building — the same person can build it.
