SMB Research is a technology advisory firm that brings a combined 25+ years of experience to deliver customized research, analysis, insights, and actionable advice to the small-to-medium business (SMB), Midmarket and Enterprise sectors.
We work with companies on technology initiatives, strategic technology decisions, tactical issues, and mission-critical inquiries.
SMB Research works on fixed fee-, hourly-, and subscription-based compensation models, depending on the need. Our fixed fee-based work is typically associated with specific types of deliverables: Case studies, profiles, surveys, and other written deliverables.
Our hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly fees typically apply to project-related work and for longer term engagements, with significant price efficiencies built into our fees the longer the engagement.
For continual access on an as-needed basis to our services, SMB Research’s subscription-based fees will make the most sense and offer a client the most continuous access to our services in the most price-efficient way.
