Proprietary Insights from Expert Calls
First-hand perspectives, such as those discovered in expert calls, are a critical addition to secondary research. Not only do they transform your research process from reactive to proactive, they ensure you stay ahead of the curve and competition. While quantitative insights and data are important for painting an objective picture, company leaders need first-hand experiential knowledge gained through expert calls to build a holistic view of any market, industry, or trend.
AlphaSense Expert Insights streamlines the expert call process and access to firsthand industry perspectives for business professionals through its innovative expert transcript library and Expert Call Services. Our expert transcript library contains insights you cannot find anywhere else, allowing you to uncover value in the following key ways:
Reliable and Objective Knowledge
It’s not always easy to find objective qualitative information in market research, especially when relying solely on company documents. In earnings and investor relations calls, companies want to present themselves in the best possible light, making it difficult to glean the nuances of company culture, industry-specific competitive landscapes, or even consumer behavior.
Expert calls are so valuable because they offer a highly informed yet unbiased perspective since the experts are no longer involved with the company in question (and in rare cases where the expert is still part of the market or industry, they have to abide by strict disclaimers to combat conflicts of interest).
Expert network calls are completely legal, provided they adhere to strict compliance standards regarding the sharing of material non-public information (MNPI). Reputable platforms like AlphaSense ensure that all calls are conducted within legal and ethical boundaries, with robust mechanisms in place to prevent the disclosure of MNPI, safeguarding all participants.
At AlphaSense, experts are required to be at least six months out of their prior role with the target company of the expert call transcript. This ensures that AlphaSense’s expert transcripts provide significantly more objective insights than interviews with current company employees or stakeholders.
Deep Insights into Niche Spaces
In many instances, there is no way of knowing the particulars of a company, industry, or market unless one has spent significant time working within the space.
However, expert call interviews can uncover insights and potential research areas that an analyst would have never known to look into. And even when a researcher is well-versed within a niche space—for instance, when an investment firm seeks to enter a high-potential market—expert calls can still provide the kind of unique perspective that would be impossible to come by from any other source.
Our expert transcript library is populated with interviews from experts closest to the source—from customers and competitors to partners and former company executives.
Insight into Highly Regulated Industries and Markets
Industries like healthcare, financial services, and tech are some of the hottest in the current investment landscape, but they are also highly regulated. As these industries are currently experiencing some of the highest growth rates in the US, demand for expert knowledge in these areas is high to capitalize on high-growth opportunities.
However, these industries are rapidly changing, and many investors do not have a full understanding of all the relevant factors at play to make well-informed business and investment strategies within these markets. AlphaSense Expert Insights can fill in these gaps and ensure that investors’ decisions are not hindered by a lack of technical expertise by providing critical context to data-driven market research.
Commentary on Larger Trends
Research analysts know how to recognize trends in market or industry data. But they don’t always understand the “why” behind these trends, what the larger implications of the trends are, or how these trends should be considered in relation to investment decisions.
Expert calls offer access to contemporary perspectives that are crucial for staying ahead of trends in rapidly changing markets. This access to real-time, relevant insights helps businesses and investors adapt to emerging trends and regulatory changes, maintaining a proactive approach to market challenges.
Our experts have the extensive experience and deep knowledge to answer all those questions. Additionally, our analysts know how to conduct interviews to recognize and get beyond any subjective motivations in an expert’s response, uncovering valuable insights that can serve as a launching ground for additional research.
