Market Research

Porchlyt blends proven research methods with new-school tools - including biometrics and AI - to deliver insights that drive smart campaigns and stronger communities.

Market research is a critical foundation for successful economic development marketing. It uncovers the motivations, perceptions, and pain points of target audiences—whether they’re families considering relocation, entrepreneurs exploring new markets, or businesses seeking growth opportunities. By understanding what drives decision-making, communities can craft more compelling messaging, prioritize the right channels, and make data-informed investments in branding and outreach. Without strong research, even the most creative campaigns risk missing the mark.

Porchlyt, powered by the cutting-edge Neurovantage platform, goes beyond traditional research methods by capturing real-time emotional and biometric responses to creative content. This neuroscience-based insight allows Porchlyt to fine-tune messaging and visuals for maximum impact, ensuring economic development campaigns resonate deeply with their intended audience. From branding strategies to video content, every deliverable is shaped by data-backed understanding—giving cities, counties, and regions a measurable advantage in attracting new residents, businesses, and investment.
