Market research & intelligence
Country and category studies, market sizing, competitor and pricing analysis, channel mapping and regulatory requirements — concluded with a recommendation.
Market researchWhat Third One does
Services
Research that picks the market, outreach that opens it, materials that close it and systems that keep it running — under one company and one point of accountability.
Seven services, one commercial sequence
Each service stands on its own. Combined, they take a company from choosing a market to signing its first orders in it — without the momentum lost between a research agency, a creative studio, a call-house and a dev shop.
B2B lead generation & business development
Ideal customer profiling, verified decision-maker databases and disciplined multi-channel outreach, measured on qualified conversations and booked meetings.
Lead generationDistributor & importer search
Mapping, screening and approaching the distributors, importers and private-label buyers who can actually carry your product in a new market.
Distributor searchMarketing materials & content production
Brochures, catalogues, corporate and product video, sales presentations and multilingual content, produced by the team running your outreach.
Content productionSoftware development
Web applications, CRM implementations, data pipelines, dashboards and integrations built around the way your commercial team actually works.
Software developmentAI automation & research agents
AI-assisted market research, prospect enrichment, outreach sequencing and monitoring — automation applied where it removes real hours, not as a label.
AI automationDigital marketing management
Positioning, SEO and content, LinkedIn and paid campaigns run as one system, reported against pipeline rather than impressions.
Digital marketingWhich service do you need?
If you do not know which market to enter, start with market research and intelligence. It ends in a ranked shortlist, so the decision is made on evidence rather than on where your last trade fair happened to be.
If you know the market but have no one to sell to, start with B2B lead generation for direct buyers, or distributor and importer search if the product needs a channel partner to reach the shelf.
If the conversations are happening but not converting, the gap is usually the material: marketing and content production puts the right brochure, catalogue, deck and video in front of the buyer, in their language.
If the process works but will not scale, that is a systems problem — software development and AI automation turn a manual routine into infrastructure you own.
Not sure? Describe the situation and we will tell you which of these you actually need, including when the answer is none of them.
Or start with the market
Most engagements begin as a market question rather than a service question. Our international market entry guide sets out the whole sequence — selection, sizing, competitors, pricing, channels, regulation, buyers and go-to-market — and links to the service that handles each stage.
Industries
The methods are industry-agnostic, but the starting point differs. See how this works for manufacturers and exporters, consumer and industrial brands, technology and service companies or investors and advisors.
Frequently asked questions
Can we engage just one service?
Yes. Most clients start with a single discipline — usually market research or lead generation — and add the others once the market is open. Nothing here is sold as a bundle you have to take whole.
Do you work on fixed projects or ongoing retainers?
Both. A market study, a distributor search or a brochure set is scoped and priced as a fixed project. A managed sales pipeline, a digital marketing programme or an ongoing monitoring brief runs as a retainer because the work is continuous.
We will tell you which shape fits your situation when we scope it, and we would rather sell you the smaller one that works.
What does an engagement cost?
It depends entirely on scope — the number of markets, the depth of research, the size of the target universe and whether production and software are involved. We respond to a scoping conversation with a defined scope and a fixed commercial proposal, so you see the number before committing to anything.
