The best leaders don't just react to change — they read the patterns beneath it.
Seventh Bear helps marketing and business leaders make sense of the noise with original research, thought leadership, and insights that reveal what's really shaping the market. We study how marketing is evolving — then help you turn those insights into smarter strategies, sharper stories, and more confident decisions.
How We Work With You
Three engagement shapes for leaders who want senior pattern-recognition — and the IP to share it with their team or market.
Named-Expert Editorial Engagements
When a marketing team needs a piece of writing that requires Robert's or Cathy's name on it — a thought leadership essay, a strategic point of view, a long-form narrative the company is going to put weight behind — Seventh Bear delivers a finished piece that blends editorial craft with the credibility of an attached byline.
Format
Fixed scope per piece. Typical engagements range from a single feature essay to multi-piece editorial programs.
Pricing
Per-piece, starting at $7,500
Original Research & Benchmarking
Custom qualitative and quantitative studies that uncover insights worth acting on — content maturity benchmarking, competitive analysis, audience research, emerging trend studies. Designed to inform strategy, not just fill slides.
Format
Project-based, typically 8–12 weeks depending on scope.
Pricing
Starting at $25,000
Ongoing Insight Program
A living insight system for leadership teams that need senior pattern recognition on the marketplace, on a sustained cadence. Regular reporting, synthesis, and strategic implications delivered against agreed-on questions.

Quarterly or monthly cadence. Multi-quarter commitments.
Pricing
Starting at $6,500/mo · calibrated on commitment

“Based on the expertise, character, and enjoyment that shines through each and every piece I've ever read, I can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Robert. You've made my job infinitely easier and entertain me along the way.
