GET STARTED
BUILT FROM THE INSIDE OUT
ForgeFoyer was built by people who have spent decades inside the problem.
Since 1997, before ForgeFoyer existed, its founders worked diligently providing solutions to the problem, helping technically excellent companies compete in markets that didn't know what they were offering even existed yet. Across some of the most demanding commercial categories in the country, industries where engineering credibility had to be translated into competitive positioning, where regulatory complexity shaped every market move, and where the difference between winning and losing came down to how clearly a company understood the ground they were standing on.
Bernthal & Associates was formed in 2016 to formalize that work. Over the following decade, it produced something that went beyond consulting frameworks or research methodology. A set of tools that consistently gave clients a structural edge that standard research couldn't replicate. The kind of intelligence that told you not just what your competitors were doing, but exactly where they were exposed and what to do about it.
ForgeFoyer was founded in 2025 to bring those tools to a broader market. The products are different in scope, from a single outreach message to a full competitive intelligence suite, but they all come from the same place. A genuine belief that most businesses are operating with an incomplete picture, and that closing that gap changes outcomes.
If you are competing in an observable market, you are exactly who we built this for
