What Differentiates Nitron in the Primary Research Industry?
Nitron uses our expertise in online networks to recruit and manage a network of industry experts who can answer your precise questions. Our competitive advantages are:
High relevance. For each of your requests, Nitron drafts a specification for your review to double-check that we understand exactly what you are investigating. Like an executive recruiter, we use that specification to screen each expert to ensure that he or she is a good fit for your specific situation. We don’t just drop-ship you a list of biographies.
Exclusivity. The vast majority of Nitron’s Circle of Experts have consulted for only one of our clients, because of our targeted strategy. In contrast, other research firms recycle the same experts for multiple clients, limiting their value in providing a trading edge.
Experts with flexibility to dive deep. We have particular expertise in introducing you to "alumni experts": senior executives from an industry’s major players who have recently become independent. These executives have time and interest in both short-term interviews and longer consulting projects. We have built this talent pool by leveraging our relationships with outplacement firms, executive networking groups, our retained executive search training, and our public visibility in online networks.
- Access to hard-to-find experts. Nitron is an expert in the use of social software and online networks for recruiting. Specifically, we use blogs, social network sites, virtual communities, relationship capital management software, biography analysis software, and other related technologies, and have developed proprietary tools and databases to recruit narrowly-defined experts on our client’s behalf. Please see our affiliated resource site, TheVirtualHandshake.com, for more on this family of technologies.
Elicitation training. There are countless books on how to read a balance sheet. However, when you actually measure how professional investors spend their time, they spend perhaps half of it talking with management, attending conferences, and in other ways learning from industry sources. Nitron provides training in how to elicit information from your sources dramatically more effectively.
Confidentiality. If you ask a large research company to do a project for you, everyone in that firm can theoretically learn your interests. As a private, small, independent company, Nitron can keep your research interests wholly confidential.
No conflicts of interest. Nitron Advisors’ sole business is to help professional investors make better investing decisions. We do not manage money and have no investment banking business.
