Marketing Research Proposal Template

We want your business to get maximum and relevant exposure. Knowing your buyer personas, your competitors’ strategy, and your optional distribution channels will help us build your Go-To-Market strategy.

What does your market look like? My plan is to arm you with the most up-to-date knowledge possible about the market that you are in. Who your competitors are and what they are doing matters. How others are performing in your market could give you an idea of what to do – and what not to do

The goal of this marketing research project is to provide a detailed market analysis for your business that includes market and competitor research, keyword research, an SEO plan, and the most successful avenues for ad campaigns in your niche.

When it comes to marketing research consultants, I’m the person you want to turn to. Here’s why: 

1. My background in marketing is extensive. I’ve worked for [x] years in the field, and have experience in both traditional and online marketing.
2. Want to see some of my work? Check out these marketing campaigns I’ve been in charge of, and see for yourself. [link to portfolio here]
3. I take into consideration all avenues of marketing that might be profitable for you, not just a select few.
4. My main goal is to provide you with knowledge of the business landscape where you live. Knowledge is power. You can’t get where you’re going if you don’t have a map.

Here’s a breakdown of the deliverables we’ve discussed and their cost.
