Program Details
TAG’s Economic Gardening program offers an array of services, the highlight of which is detailed and powerful marketing research. The research is provided by Chris Gibbons, the pioneer of the Economic Gardening methodology, and his team of specialized research analysts. The high quality research is provided to clients within a two-week period following the initial request and is derived from the most comprehensive databases available. Normally, this research is available only to FORTUNE 500 companies because of the high cost. Quality business development research is provided in the following areas at a discounted rate:
