R&D by R. L. Martin and Associates can boost your bottom line.

There was a time, long ago, when the smartest people knew everything that was known. Then more knowledge was discovered and the smartest people knew everything about only one subject. Today there is so much knowledge that even the smartest people don't know everything about anything. You are obviously a smart person or you wouldn't be reading this, but you may need help to find and use the knowledge that you know you don't know.

If you have a simple question the answer is probably available somewhere on the Internet, but how do you find it? Post your question to a news group and either get ignored or maybe generate a flame war among self-proclaimed experts who disagree? Ask a famous expert who is probably very busy and may not find your question interesting enough to answer? Have a search engine find 200,000 different web pages for you to check that might have the information you need? If you get an answer, can you understand it? Is it really useful, really what you needed to know?

If you find the information you're looking for, is it correct? There is a lot of wrong information in cyberspace, and the Net allows it to spread faster than ever before. If you're just settling a bet with a friend it may not matter much, but if your business decisions depend on accurate information you may worry that the free information you've gotten is worth exactly what you paid for it. R. L. Martin and Associates can provide you with information, not hearsay, and if needed we will help you understand what it means to you. We'll tell you if we don't know and can't find the answer, not try to protect our egos by mixing some drivel with jargon and pretending it is an answer.

Perhaps the knowledge you need doesn't exist. Do you have to be a rocket scientist or fund an Apollo-sized project to discover it? Perhaps not. Just because something isn't known doesn't necessarily mean it is difficult or expensive to discover. Maybe no one has wanted to know before, but with a little investigation the answer can be found. R. L. Martin and Associates can analyze the question and tell you whether the answer is likely to be found at a cost you can afford. Then we can do the research if you want, or point you in the right direction. The results can give your business a competitive edge.

Many small businesses have need of scientific and technological expertise, but in a time when even industrial giants are cutting back on R&D spending and associated scientific staff small businesses certainly can not afford in-house experts. Businesses can obtain expertise in small, affordable amounts by having R. L. Martin and Associates investigate specific problems and provide customized, cost-effective solutions. Low overhead and the broad range of experience possessed by R. L. Martin and Associates makes this possible.
