Assess market potential with Propelligence®

Propelligence is a unique service that uses a 4-stage methodology and simulation model to assess a product’s true market potential prior to investment. Created out of a partnership between Trone Research + Consulting (TRC) and The Scullion Strategy Group, LLC (SSG), Propelligence is changing the way product concepts are valued in the animal health and life science industries.

The Propelligence methodology incorporates business case scenario planning with insight and quantitative market research to clarify a product’s revenue potential. Through this service, we’re able to define how the product should be positioned and what product claims will make it most appealing. Propelligence gives company stakeholders an in-depth analysis of projected value so they can make well-informed decisions on their go-to-market and/or clinical development strategies.
