About us
Why New York Small Businesses Trust Mainbrain Research for Market Intelligence
The $140 billion global market research industry generated $48 billion in U.S. revenue in 2024, with companies typically investing 2-5% of revenue on market research according to industry benchmarks.

Mainbrain Research bridges this gap by providing professional market research services scaled for small and medium businesses in New York. Our methodology combines proven research techniques with cost-effective approaches that deliver reliable insights within typical SMB budget constraints of $5,000-$25,000 per project.

Common Challenges Facing New York Small Businesses
Why 42% of Small Businesses Fail Without Proper Market Intelligence
Making Decisions Based on Assumptions
New York business owners often rely on gut instinct rather than validated market data, leading to costly product launches, ineffective marketing campaigns, and missed growth opportunities that could have been identified through professional research.
Resource Constraints in Specialized Environments
Without proper customer segmentation and market analysis, New York businesses spend precious marketing dollars targeting broad audiences instead of focusing on their most profitable customer segments, resulting in poor ROI and limited growth.
Losing to Competitors Who Understand the Market Better
Competitors who invest in market intelligence gain significant advantages in positioning, pricing, and customer acquisition, leaving New York businesses struggling to compete effectively in their local and regional markets.
Statistical Reality:
According to SBA data, 42% of small businesses fail due to lack of market demand, while companies in New York that invest 2-5% of revenue in market research achieve 23% better business outcomes and make decisions 31% faster than those relying solely on internal analysis.
