Why Market Research?

A well build market research study can give you answers at your business-related questions based on data and not on hunches.

Eliminate cognitive and confirmatory biases from your decision, because often our brain could trick us.

Customers buy products/services not for the features but for the benefits. In order to know the benefits, the customer relates to, first you need to know their needs. Do you know that? Do you even know your target customer and their characteristics? This could get your business to the next level.

What’s the size of the market? Who are your competitors? What are the trends? How do you position yourself? SWOT analysis was a factor in your decision?

These are just a few of the questions at which market research can provide you with answers. Let us help you!

We are volatility sellers and we use time decay in our favor. We know our greeks and by that, it’s implied that we know our risks. We know even in our sleep where’s a 1 standard deviation of a move and how the normal distribution shapes our everyday life. Another approach to this is just to use options as stock insurance to minimize the market risks and reduce the buying power by using a covered call.
