      I have worked with Jacob Tyler for the past four years starting with a company rebrand and then moving into website development, video development, PowerPoint decks, print brochures and email campaigns.

      I've worked with Les and Jacob Tyler since early 2022. Together, we spent more than a year working on the strategic development of our website; they approached our project with patience, understanding, flexibility, creativity, and collaboration. The entire Jacob Tyler team has been, and continues to be, an excellent creative partner, trusted advisor, and extension of Dempsey's marketing team. I cannot recommend working with them enough.

      Cristin Smith's Review Sourced from Google

      We recently worked with Jacob Tyler Agency on a direct mail campaign, and the experience exceeded every expectation. Their personalized approach, attention to detail, and commitment to understanding our brand’s voice and mission truly set them apart from other creative agencies. The design work was stunning, modern, and perfectly aligned with our holistic health aesthetic. Their team took the time to learn our goals, audience, and messaging, and delivered a mailer that was not only visually beautiful but strategically effective. We’ve already noticed increased engagement and positive feedback from our community. What really stood out was their collaborative process, fast communication, and ability to translate complex ideas into clean, compelling creative. From concept development to print-ready execution, everything felt seamless, professional, and high-quality. If you’re looking for a top-tier branding agency, creative design studio, or marketing partner that delivers high-impact design, strong strategy, and exceptional service, Jacob Tyler is the team you want. Highly recommend for any business seeking elevated brand identity, graphic design, or marketing support.

      Michael has been exactly what I needed. He is a proven expert at all the technical elements of business and strategy, but for me it's how he balances this with understanding people. He's taken the time to understand who I am, and what makes me tick or freeze up. This means he can always find a way to tap into something in me that creates momentum for change. I proudly recommend him at any given opportunity.

      I have been working with Michael for the last 6 month as an executive coach. Michael not only brings knowledge, strategy and results to our business, but more importantly he brings a personable approach. Our fortnightly catch ups throw up all sorts of conversations and I always leave the call with clarity, and feeling more motivated than when I joined. A true gentleman. To anyone looking for a Mentor or Business Coach, Michael comes with the highest of recommendation.

      Ben Hartman's Review Sourced from Google

      Webosition brought Avour to life from the ground up and delivered far more than a website. They helped create the business itself — from LLC formation and business registration to brand strategy, logo design, messaging, website development, digital storytelling, and our entire digital footprint — the whole nine yards. What impressed me most was their ability to combine business strategy with creativity. Every element felt intentional and aligned, creating a brand presence that looked sophisticated, credible, and market-ready from day one. Their process was collaborative, professional, and deeply strategic. They understood the vision, refined it, and translated it into both a real business and a powerful digital presence that truly represented the brand. If you’re looking for a team that can help create, position, and launch a business the right way, I highly recommend Webosition.

      IURII DIVONCHUK's Review Sourced from Google

      I run a photography company in Chicago, and working with Webosition was genuinely eye-opening. They didn't just review my site - they helped me understand where I was invisible online and why. The audit surfaced real gaps I hadn't noticed: missing schema markup, weak local SEO signals, and positioning that wasn't speaking to the right clients. Since addressing those areas, my authority in search has noticeably strengthened and I'm attracting better-fit leads. What sets them apart is that they think like business owners, not just marketers. If you're a service business looking to stop being the best-kept secret in your market, these are the people to call!

      We had such a great experience with this B West Builders . We remodeled our kitchen and part of our living room, and the difference is incredible. What I appreciated most was how easy they made the whole process. They explained everything clearly, helped us make decisions when we were unsure, and always kept us updated. The crew was friendly and respectful, and the quality of the work really shows. Our house finally feels like the home we always wanted.

      I have been working with Jason and his team for over a year and a half and I would highly recommend them. They give highly personalized attention and provide tangible results which is something we haven't really found in any other PR agency over the years. They are great listeners and idea agents - but also very effective at getting things done.

Everything you need to know before you hire a market research company

What are the real signs I'm ready to hire a market research company?

You're ready to hire a market research firm when the cost of a wrong decision exceeds the cost of the research itself and when the question you need answered can't be resolved with internal data alone.

That threshold looks different by situation, but here's how to read the signals:

You're ready if:

  • You're entering a new market, launching a new product, or making a pricing decision with six-figure consequences.
  • You've identified a specific business question (e.g., which customer segment is most price-sensitive?).
  • You have a stakeholder who will act on the findings.
  • You have a strict timeline.

You're NOT ready if:

  • You can't articulate what decision the research will directly inform.
  • You're hoping research will validate a decision already made.
  • Your internal data hasn't been fully mined.

How do I shortlist market research agencies without wasting three weeks evaluating the wrong ones?

Eliminate on three criteria before you spend a single call: methodology fit, sector fluency, and sample access.

  • Step 1 - Filter by methodology first. Define whether your question requires quantitative research (surveys, conjoint analysis, segmentation modeling), qualitative research (focus groups, ethnography, IDIs), or a mixed-method.
  • Step 2 - Filter by sector fluency. Market research firms that work in your vertical will have existing panel access, benchmark data, and recruiter relationships for hard-to-reach audiences.
  • Step 3 - Filter by sample reach. Ask each firm to describe the last three projects where they recruited an audience similar to yours.

What NOT to consider as a criterion: Agency size, award lists, and website aesthetics are not shortlisting criteria.

How long does a market research project take?

A standard market research project runs 6 to 8 weeks, on average. Here's how the timeline is usually sequenced:

  • Weeks 1 and 2 go to brief and design: the agency writes a proposal, you review it, request changes, and approve.
  • Weeks 3 and 4 are for recruitment for qualitative work: sourcing participants who meet your criteria, are available, and are willing to participate.
  • Weeks 5 and 6 are reserved for fieldwork.
  • Weeks 7 and 8 are dedicated to analysis, reporting, internal revision, and delivery.

Should I start with a pilot project or commit to a full engagement with a market research agency?

Start with a pilot if you've never worked with this firm before and the full engagement exceeds $50,000.

A pilot project, typically a smaller, bounded study or a single research wave, serves three functions:

  1. It tests their fieldwork quality. You'll see actual survey instruments, actual recruit screeners, and actual data before you've committed to the full budget.
  2. It tests their communication. Do they proactively flag problems, or do you find out about issues at delivery?
  3. It tests the analyst layer. The difference between a good market research firm and a great one usually shows up in the analysis and synthesis. A pilot will allow you to evaluate the quality of their interpretation before you depend on it for a major decision.

When to skip the pilot and commit upfront:

  • The study requires longitudinal tracking (you need a consistent methodology across waves).
  • You're on a compressed timeline, and a pilot would push the decision past its window.
  • The firm has a verifiable track record in your specific category with references you've actually checked.

One important clarification: A pilot is not a free consultation. Budget it as a real, paid engagement with a clear deliverable.

How do I know when it's time to switch market research firms vs. give them more time?

Switch when the data quality is compromised, stay when the issue is communication or process friction, which are fixable problems.

Switch immediately if:

  • Fieldwork quality issues (poor sample composition, survey logic errors, data inconsistencies) appear in the first wave and aren't corrected before the next wave.
  • The firm has materially misrepresented their capabilities, i.e., panel size, sector expertise, or analyst credentials don't match what was proposed.
  • You've discovered the analysis is being done by junior staff without senior review, contrary to what was agreed.

Give them more time if:

  • Deliverables are late, but the quality is strong, as timeline management is a process hiccup, not a capability problem.
  • The findings are uncomfortable but defensible; good market research often tells you what you didn't want to hear.
  • The relationship is new, and you haven't given them full visibility into your internal context, which affects how they frame recommendations.

6 FAQs About Market Research Companies

What are the red flags when evaluating market research companies?

The most disqualifying red flag is a market research firm that proposes a methodology before diagnosing your problem. This is a common indication that the firm is reverse-engineering your question to fit their existing fieldwork infrastructure, rather than designing a study to answer what you actually need to know.  

You should also consider the panel opacity; namely, any market research company that can't specify whether they're using a river sample, a proprietary panel, or a blended approach, and what their median panel tenure and re-contact intervals look like, might be concealing a data quality problem.  

Other red flags to watch out for are:  

  • Case studies with no stated confidence intervals or margin of error. 
  • A research director who goes silent after kickoff and hands you to a junior analyst. 
  • Proposals that treat sample size as a fixed number rather than a function of your required subgroup precision. 
  • If the agency doesn't ask how granular your cross-tabulations need to be before they quote an n-size. 

How much does it cost to hire a market research company?

A custom market research project from a professional firm can cost from $25,000 to $65,000, with specialist market research commanding the higher end of that range. 

In terms of variables, there are five factors that affect final pricing: 

  • Methodology: Qualitative research (focus groups, in-depth interviews) costs more than quantitative (surveys) because it involves harder-to-reach participants and higher incentives per respondent. 
  • Sample size: More respondents means higher fieldwork and incentive costs, wherein the minimum viable sample varies significantly by methodology. 
  • Incidence rate: This is the percentage of the general population who qualify for your study. Low incidence multiplies sample costs because the firm has to screen far more people to fill each completed interview slot. 
  • Survey length: More questions mean longer field periods, more respondent drop-off, and more data to clean, code, and tabulate. 
  • Quality and credibility of analysis: Basic cross-tabulation is fairly cheap, whereas advanced analytics entail higher fees. 

What do market research agencies charge that most clients don't expect?

The costs most clients don't see coming are fieldwork overruns, unbundled data processing fees, and multi-market add-ons. Here are a few more details about each cost: 

  1. Fieldwork overruns: When your target audience is harder to find than the agency assumed, you pay more per respondent to hit your sample size. For example, a study targeting general consumers might screen 1 in 3 people. A study targeting, say, finance decision-makers at mid-market companies who've evaluated a new vendor recently might screen 1 in 12 people; that gap multiplies your fieldwork cost fast. 
  2. Data processing fees: Cleaning and organizing your data after fieldwork closes isn't included by default, and each step gets billed separately. The service entails making the sample representative of your target population, categorizing written responses by hand, and merging qualitative and quantitative findings into one coherent output. 
  3. Multi-market add-ons: If your study runs across multiple countries, everything it takes to make the research work locally (translating the survey, verifying the translation is culturally accurate, and confirming findings hold up in each market) is almost never included in the base quote. 

The safest way to obtain an accurate proposal is to ask the agency for a full cost-at-risk breakdown, i.e., a list of every line item that could increase based on fieldwork conditions or scope changes. 

How do I know if I'm hiring the right market research firm for my budget?

The right market research agency is the one that's honest about what your budget can and can't buy. 

The real risk is underspending just enough to get a study that looks credible but can't answer your actual question: 

  • Pricing research with a sample too small to break down results by customer segment 
  • Segmentation work that identifies clusters in the data, but can't tell you how to reach or sell to any of them 
  • Concept testing run on a general audience that doesn't resemble your actual buyer 

A credible market research company will tell you upfront if your budget constrains the methodology. 

What does a bad engagement with a market research agency look like, and how do I avoid it?

Bad engagements follow the same pattern almost every time: a vague brief, a proposal that doesn't challenge it, and a final deliverable that presents data without telling you what to do with it. Underdelivered outcome looks different depending on what you hired them for: 

  • Segmentation studies. The research identifies customer groups statistically, but those groups don't map to any audience you can actually reach or any go-to-market move you can actually make. 
  • Concept testing. The study tells you which concept scored highest, but doesn't inform why the others scored lower, or what's driving the preference, rendering you unable to improve anything or make a confident call. 
  • Pricing research. The agency asks respondents directly what they'd pay. Respondents don't answer that question honestly. The result looks like data but reflects no real purchase behavior. 

In practice, these aren't unusual outcomes. More so, they tend to happen when a market research company takes a brief at face value instead of pressure-testing whether the methodology actually answers the main question.

Before you proceed with collaboration, ask the agency three things: 

  • What decision will this study enable? 
  • What would a surprising finding look like? 
  • What would it mean for us if we got that result? 
  • Do you use AI tools for discovery? 

When does it make sense NOT to hire a market research company?

Hiring a market research firm only makes sense when you have a genuine information gap: a decision that's significant, hard to reverse, and cannot be answered with data you already have. Outside of that, you're paying for research you don't need. 

Skip the service if your timeline is too short. A properly designed study with a screener, fieldwork, data cleaning, and analysis takes weeks. Rushing that process cuts quality controls, and data with hidden flaws will ultimately give you false confidence. That's worse than no data at all. If you need an answer within two weeks, you're better off with: 

  • 8-12 in-depth interviews with target customers 
  • Your own CRM or behavioral analytics 
  • Existing syndicated reports from sources like Forrester, IDC, or Euromonitor 

Skip the service if the answer already exists. If your transaction data already shows how different customer segments respond to price changes, commissioning a new pricing study is a redundant spend.
