Frequently Asked Questions

At FMI, we respect your decision to carry out due diligence before ordering a report. Therefore, we offer a sample of the concerned report for your review and evaluation.

In addition to the report sample, our in-house team of market research reports is available for pre-sales calls. We provide our clients transparent information so they can choose the best possible option for their organization.

In addition to sending you a sample report through email, we also provide a demo of our previous editions on calls. Considering the confidential and intangible nature of reports, we only provide a demo of these reports in a secure environment, using our online meeting platforms.

Ordering a report from FMI is as easy as it gets! You can choose a license type depending upon how many people in your organization will need access to the report and head to checkout. You will be presented with payment gateway options to choose from – you can rest assured that your payment details are not stored and are used only for transaction purposes.

Once you make the payment, we will send you a confirmation email along with report delivery timelines. Ready reports are usually send to the email ID you used to make the payment within 24-48 hours. For work-in-progress or upcoming reports, we will suggest you the best delivery ETA based on the complexity of the project and internal factors. However, you can be rest assured that report delivery is prioritized and expedited.

In cases where you are in pre-sales discussions about the scope of the study and price, our business development representative will offer you the timeline and cost of the report. You will then be presented with an option to pay by card online or through a wire transfer.

Future Market Insights also accepts purchase orders and also provides all necessary details for vendor registration. On the agreed delivery date, the report is dispatched to the registered email ID.

Please note that except for purchase orders, FMI does not send the reports until payment is realized, or a proof of transaction is shared by the client. This is in accordance with our financial audit policies and our commitment to transparent financial reporting.

For reports that are already published and available in our repository, the delivery timeline is 24 to 48 hours. Before reports are dispatched to the client, they go through a stringent quality check process. After the go-ahead from our quality check team, the research report is dispatched to the client.

For upcoming reports, we already published a tentative time of when the report will be available. Usually, the timeline of publication of such reports is 1-2 months. However, we understand that clients may have immediate requirements, and based on mutual discussion, we offer the best possible timeframe for such reports.

All FMI reports are available in PDF and PPT format – a spreadsheet with all market numbers is also provided to clients. Although electronic mode remains the preference for majority of our clients, we can also send a hard copy of the report.

The charges for shipping a hard copy of the report vary across locations, and the charge is usually added to the invoice of the report. The business development representative will provide you all the details regarding the shipping charges.

FMI is committed to addressing all post-sales queries you may have. Our analysts are available to take your feedback once you receive the report, and make changes you deem appropriate.

However, the post-sales rework/revision is governed by a fair usage policy, and we request all clients to raise such a request within 10 days of receiving the report. This is in tandem with our internal resource scheduling and allocation process, as our consultants move to a new project

Creating a market research report is a complex, diligent activity that entails thorough planning and preparation. Once you order a report with us, we are on the move very quickly. Due to any reason if you are no longer interested in the report, the terms and conditions of the payment will still apply.

As the consultants have already worked on the report, and their work hours have been billed, FMI reserves the right to receive payment even if you are no longer interested.

In certain cases, where you change your mind within 24 hours of ordering the report, a level of flexibility may be offered. But this flexibility is on the discretion of the representative and his/her discretion will be final in such cases.

If you make a payment and express your disinterest within 24 hours, a credit note of equal/lower value may be issued. This again will be at the discretion of the rep and management of FMI.

Depending upon the number of users who need to access the report, you can choose among individual, corporate, and enterprise license. Below is the pricing and feature of these license types.

If the number of users is more than one but less than ten, a flexible pricing option can be provided to you by FMI’s business development rep.

Although FMI recommends global reports due to the interconnectedness of markets and relative influences, we understand that clients have varied or limited requirements.

Upon establishing feasibility that report accuracy will not be compromised, FMI does offer clients an option to extrapolate certain sections of the report. You can discuss the unique requirements with our business development rep and research specialist who will suggest the best option for you – in terms of both scope and pricing.
