Innovative and traditional Competition, Competitor Analysis and Competitive Assessment to improve your competitive advantage
Competitive Analysis is strategically powerful Business Intelligence
Competitive factors are crucial in determining how you plan your business,
building competitive advantage with superior competitive intelligence.
Your competitors will NOT stand still. They want your business, and your customers. In a competitive market analysis, investigation and assessment of competitors' SWAT (strengths, weaknesses, adaptabilities and threats) is just as important as your own.
Remember: "The only constant in the world is change"... which means your competitors are thinking up ways to steal your success from you. You MUST keep them under constant scrutiny!
Analysis of business competition helps develop Sustainable Competitive Advantage
In growing/developing markets, competitive activity is usually beneficial. In
mature or declining markets it is dangerous. Regardless you need to know about
it, so you can plan to maximise your position at their expense. Opportunities
always lie in knowing your competition's focus, moves, plans... whether it be to
take them on head-to-head, or avoid direct competition altogether.
Competitor analysis is an essential component in managing corporate strategy
Most businesses suffer competitive damage because they rely on informal feedback, gossip, and intuition. Other organisations lose because unreported valuable titbits of information about competitors just don't get reported because management don't have a corporate information collection process.
Good Competition Assessment and competitor analysis includes a SWAT
Good marketing DEMANDS formal competition and competitor analysis. Without insightful and informed information ANY company is at risk of dangerous competitive blind spots from a lack of focused competitor awareness.
Relying on market research and marketing information management for incidental competition assessment and competitor analysis is NOT enough!
