Services
Most of your business runs smoothly - your employees perform their tasks without you, your customers buy from you, and you stay ahead of the competition! But every once in a while, something changes just enough and the things you’ve always been doing are no longer working. Employees become less productive, sales decrease and your competitors cut their prices in order to attract your customers. How do you regain clarity, be focused and stay on the direction when you feel that you’re no longer in control?
Or, perhaps things are going well. Your company is growing quickly, and with that growth come new challenges. You are faced with choices and opportunities. Do you expand into a new market? Expand your product lines? Form a strategic alliance? These are the decisions that will determine the long-term success of your firm. How do you make sure the path you’re about to take is the right one? It’s time to find a partner that will help you take charge of your company’s future.

Business Plan Consulting
We work closely with you to understand your goals and vision, and then develop your entire business plan. Although most clients hire us to write a business plan for them, they often find that the process they go through in developing that final business plan is more valuable than the documents themselves.
Our business planning process is intense, thorough, and highly collaborative. As business plan consultants, we will help you to refine your business model, identify your most profitable customers, fine-tune your marketing plan, and improve your sales projections. We provide an objective view, so your final business plan makes a statement that exudes confidence and attracts investors.
- We work closely with you to understand your goals and vision, and then develop your entire business plan, from "elevator pitch" to "exit strategy."
- We don't start with a "canned" business plan format – each business plan is individually crafted to meet the unique requirements of each client.
- Unlike many of our competitors, we expect – even demand – several iterations. We understand that the first version is rarely perfect. If you are not happy with our work, we aren't either.
- We don't just "write a business plan." We question assumptions, perform independent research on the market and competition, and explore and propose alternative ways to market your product or service. We are business plan consultants, not just business plan writers.
- If your business plan is to obtain capital, we'll evaluate your plan from the viewpoint of a prospective investor or partner. Our experience allows us to quickly spot problems and fix them long before you meet with your first investor.
A professional business plan ties all of the above together into a self-consistent, attractive professional package that speaks for itself. A "typical" business plan is between 12 and 18 pages long, excluding supplementary documentation such as financial projections, graphs, charts, etc. The final business plan package ranges from 20 to 80 pages, depending on the complexity of your business, how much capital you are seeking, how many markets you are targeting, etc.
Rest assured that no matter how simple or complicated your underlying business is, we will spend the time and effort necessary to make your business plan a major springboard towards your future success.

Market Research Consulting
While most market research companies serve large companies, we go the other way – we focus on the needs of small businesses. We uncover market opportunities, and sometimes, marketing challenges, that others miss. Our market research yields solid, factual, defensible information that is directly relevant to your specific needs, not the needs of the "average" company in your industry. We combine quantitative market research (statistical analysis, graphs, charts) and qualitative market research (interviews, articles, opinions) to give you a balanced and accurate picture. Here are a few examples of projects we have completed:
- Survey design and execution (invite respondents, collect results, analyze, report)
- Phone or in-person interviews of customers, employees, executives, business owners, industry experts, etc.
- Focus groups, roundtables, and executive forums
- Market opportunity assessments (evaluate the potential for your ideas, products, services, or processes)
- Competitor analysis / competitive intelligence studies
- "Blue sky" sessions on product / application / market possibilities, particularly in the area of technology commercialization
Why Market Research is Important
Accurate market research is the foundation for every business or marketing plan. URMNS can help you gain a much deeper understanding of:
- market opportunities
- existing customers
- prospects
- competitors
- employees
- industry trends
- environmental or regulatory risks
We Help You Focus
Large market research firms research specific industries and generate standardized industry reports. The problem for most small businesses is that very few of them fit neatly into these industry categories. That's where we come in. Instead of generating canned industry reports, everything we do is customized for each client. Effective marketing is all about targeting and focus. Better targeting means less waste, lower expenses, and higher profits.
- Conduct a comprehensive market opportunity assessment - Assess your markets and current market positions (market size and share of market, channels, growth trends, threats, and opportunities)
- Identify customer needs and determine which market segments hold the most, and least, attractive profit potential.
- Find out what customers and prospects think about your new customer service procedures, your sign-up process, your newest product, your new tag-line, your invoicing process, etc.
- Identify regulatory, political, and demographic trends that could create problems and opportunities for your business.
- Develop a thorough understanding of competitors - Who leads and who follows in this space? How much market share does each player have? What are their strengths and weaknesses? How do they differentiate themselves? How does their pricing strategy compare with yours? How do they market their products and services? How does their brand equity compare to yours?
- Identify opportunities to use your strengths and exploit competitor weaknesses.
