  3. Summary • There is definite and significant demand for an expanded, or segmented, business information offering: • STRATFOR has two significant audiences. The biggest, comprising 2/3 of the audience is opinion leaders, the most valuable in high-end news. • A second, is a third of the total audience, is a professional audience using the information for both personal and work reasons. • We tested some 30 products under the labels of "access," "personalization," "customization" and "research." • Of these, the research offering is the most popular with demand around 40% of professionals. • … with customization, personalization and access generally coming in between 20% and 30%. • STRATFOR already produces most of these products but they are not packaged this way, or segmented. • The total opportunity likely ranges between the mid-seven figures and up to the low eight figures, depending upon several key decisions. • Certain of these decisions could boost revenues from professional users and opinion leaders.

  4. Market Analysis • In 2010 the total size of the U.S. communications industry: $1.236 trillion, approximately 7.5% of GDP. • The biggest categories are.... • Cable Television: $169.4 billion • Direct Marketing: $194 billion • In the categories of “serious” information, all these are in decline... • Newspaper Publishing: $72.5 billion • Consumer Magazine Publishing: $27.2 billion • Business-to-Business Media: $30.2 billion • All except one: • Professional Business Information Services: $181.9 billion • ... projected to double from 2000.

  5. Competitive Analysis • Approximately six holding companies control most of the market share in serious business news and information. • These include Pearson's, McGraw-Hill, Thompson-Reuters, HIS, and others. The scale of all these companies is in the billions of dollars per year in revenues. • Of these only two have fielded any form of sustained political intelligence offering: Pearson/FT’s Economist Group and HIS’s Jane’s. • The Economist Group’s Economist brand companies yield about $750 million in revenues annually (75% of the group) while Jane’s yields about $75 million. • In 2008 The Economist Group attempted to buy Jane’s but lost the bidding war to HIS to the tune of more than $180 million… • …Likely to gain Jane’s mix of political+security offering to cross-sell against The Economist’s U.S. audience, which comprises 60% of the brand companies revenues. • Both serve mid-to senior tier of researchers and executives as well as a small number of true decision-makers. Jane’s has a mostly a defense-related audience, while The Economist has a more typical Fortune 500 audience
