Recognizing the shocking dearth of useful, holistic macro-Internet analysis and innovation in the marketplace six years ago, Scott Cleland committed to discover and  innovate where others were not, to create the best macro-Internet knowledge, insight, and predictability. Since then, Cleland has conceived, researched, invented, and pioneered an innovative, proprietary, macro-Internet change research discipline, trademarked as Macrointernetics^®. It now fills a prior problematic gap in critical, practical, and actionable macro-Internet knowledge, savvy, and expertise.

• It is the study, discipline, and knowledge of the macro-Internet’s unique, permissionless, geosystem, structure, performance, designs, decisions, changes, dynamics, behaviors, incentives, standards, assumptions, cause-effects, risk-rewards, and externalities for the macro-Internet as a whole nationally and globally.
• Its practical purposes are to increase Internet predictability and integrity, to better anticipate, alert, and advise clients.
• It is to the Internet what macroeconomics is to the global economy.
• It has no existing competitor.

The Precursor^® tagline is Empowers Success^™ because: the definition of precursor is one that paves the way of another’s success/accomplishment; and because its Founder, Scott Cleland is a ProvenPrecursor with a 30-year, proven track-record of accurate forthright foresight that empowered clients to succeed.
