THE RESEARCH SERVICE

In addition to this blog, I offer a subscription research service, with the following pricing:

The standard service—$6000 annually. Approximately fifty full research reports on emerging issues in defense policy, technology, geopolitics, and economics; direct, priority access to the researcher for one hour monthly; and two votes each week on the analytical subject for the next week. We'll let you share those reports with anyone in your immediate organization (ask for details). That’s $500 monthly for about four research reports on topics you help choose, plus an hour of our time for further questioning—a pretty compelling deal.

The small business service—$3000 annually. Qualified small businesses (ask for details) will get the research memorandum, one hour per month of bundled access, and one vote on the subject for the following week.

Any individual report—$500. If you just want a single report on any given subject, we offer a flat and consistent price. As with the service above, you'll get a bundled hour of discussion on the topic.

The non-profit service—free. Selected people in academia, government, and the press can get the research reports for free, provided we can claim you as subscriber (ask for details).

The blog—free. I will continue my long-running weekly column on defense policy, both as that public service and as a marketing mechanism for the subscription service. Topics will generally pertain more to matters of policy than business, just to ensure that paying subscribers are getting something unique.
