Dear Product or Marketing Manager:
Along with millions of others, we at Flow Research have felt the impact of our recent national tragedy. I was attending the ISA show in Houston on September 11, and had to rent a car and drive the 1900 miles back to Boston. It is sad that such an excellent show was cut short by these senseless acts. Our hearts go out to those most directly affected by these tragic events.
Despite the recent events, we believe it is important to continue with our work. In that context, I have very exciting news. The entire series of New Technology flowmeter studies is now complete! The following studies are finished, and we have already shipped a number of copies:
· Volume I: The Market for Coriolis Flowmeters Worldwide
· Volume II: The Market for Magnetic Flowmeters Worldwide
· Volume III: The Market for Ultrasonic Flowmeters Worldwide
· Volume IV: The Market for Vortex Flowmeters Worldwide
· Volume V: The Market for New Technology Flowmeters Worldwide
· Volume VI: Worldwide Survey of Flowmeter Users
One unique feature of these studies is that they were all researched together. Other research companies do one study at a time, meaning that the data in different studies may not be consistent. Because these studies were done simultaneously, they use consistent definitions and terminology. Thus, these studies form a complete and systematic analysis of the New Technology flowmeter market worldwide.
Volume VI, Worldwide Survey of Flowmeter Users is an amazing accomplishment in itself. To create this volume, we translated our 14-page questionnaire into French, German, Chinese, and Japanese. We then interviewed users by phone in North America, Europe, and Asia: 100 from each region. In Europe, we interviewed users in Germany, France, and the UK. In Asia, we interviewed users in China, Japan, and Singapore. This volume includes a total worldwide analysis, as well as an analysis by region. It answers questions like the following ones:
This is just a sample of the many important questions answered in our worldwide user survey.
If you want to take a more in-depth look at individual markets, then the first four studies are for you. These studies are the most comprehensive available anywhere. Here’s why:
· We interviewed and profiled every supplier we could find, not just the leaders. The ultrasonic study has 49 company profiles, and the magnetic flow study has 36 company profiles. There are 14 profiles in the Coriolis study and 15 in the vortex study.
· We talked to companies all over the world, in places like Japan, Singapore, Germany, Italy, France, Lithuania, China, Taiwan, Sweden, and many other countries.
· These studies are not “updates” of previous studies; they are brand new studies with completely original information. We don’t fill our studies with “canned” or recycled text.
· Instead of just talking to suppliers, we interviewed 300 users in Asia, Europe, and North America, and used their responses to make more accurate forecasts.
· Each study includes a product analysis for each supplier, containing a summary, photos, and specs for their products. Chapter Three of each study provides an overview with detailed specs of all products offered worldwide for the type of flowmeter in question.
If you would like more information on this family of studies, please fill out the attached form and fax it back to us at 781-224-7552. Or you can call us at 781-245-3200, or email me at jesse@flowresearch.com. Visit our website at www.flowresearch.com for descriptions of each study and an order form. Please note that our partner, Ducker Research Company, publishes these studies, and you can order directly from them. See the order form for more details.
These studies are simply the best research available today on the worldwide flowmeter market. Don’t miss your chance to benefit from more than a full year of research, and the thousands of hours we put into these projects. Call or write us today for further information!

Overview of Worldflow™
Studies
What’s in these studies? Here’s an outline of volumes I through IV. These are the individual studies covering Coriolis, Magnetic, Ultrasonic, and Vortex flowmeters worldwide:
Chapter One: Executive Summary
Chapter Two: Introduction and Methodology
Chapter Three: Product and Technology Analysis
Chapter Four: Market Size and Forecast through 2005
Chapter Five: Market Shares by Region and Industry
Chapter Six: Strategies for Success
Chapter Seven: Company Profiles
Appendix A: Worldwide Flowmeter Study Proposal
Appendix B: Supplier Input Form
Appendix C: End-user Questionnaire (14-page form used for end-user survey)
Appendix D: Directory of Flowmeter Suppliers (Lists 252 suppliers & contact info.)
Chapter One-Executive Summary: Concisely presents the main conclusions of the study.
Chapter Two-Introduction: Presents the methodology and key definitions of terms used in the study. Defines the countries included in the five geographic regions used: North America, Europe, Japan, Asia without Japan, and Rest of World.
Chapter Three-Product and Technology Analysis: Presents the theory of operation of the flowmeter in question (Coriolis, magnetic, ultrasonic, or vortex). Provides a detailed analysis of the products by model name. Specs listed include applications, diameter range, connection type, flow range, temperature range, approvals, pressure range, and flowtube material. This is a new feature in these studies, and provides a complete overview of the available products on the market worldwide from virtually every supplier.
Chapter Four-Market Size and Forecast Through 2005: By compiling together the sales data
from the individual companies contacted, we have been able to determine actual
market size. Market is forecast by
geographic region, and in terms of various market segments specific to each
type of meter. This chapter tells
you the dollar amount of each type of flowmeter sold in each geographic region,
and the number of units sold.
Chapter Five-Market Shares by Region and by Industry: Provides market share analysis for each type of flowmeter by geographic region and by industry. Industries covered include oil & gas, refining, chemical, food & beverage, pulp & paper, pharmaceutical, metals & mining, power, water & wastewater, and other.
Chapter Six-Strategies for Success: Contains strategies that flowmeter suppliers can use to gain market share, and to expand their presence in the market.
Chapter Seven-Company Profiles: Contains detailed information on the suppliers of the type of flowmeter in question. Includes detailed information on company history and the products supplied by each company.
