Write down a real problem;
we will see if it deserves research

You do not need to know how to frame it. Write the decision, the deadline and what you are stuck on. Replies usually within two working days; if it is not a fit, I will say so and point you to someone better.

Direct
Most useful in a first note
  • The specific choice you are facing, and when it must be made.
  • What you have already tried, and why it was not enough.
  • What it costs if the call is wrong.

No deck needed. Three sentences covering these are enough.

Fit / no fit
FIT
  • Strategy and investment judgment under high uncertainty
  • Willing to open data and first-hand interviews
  • Accepts that conclusions may be discussed publicly
NOT A FIT
  • An industry report is all you need
  • A single certain forecast is required
  • No real decision behind the question
