✔️Product Nugget: How to Research Your Competition Like a Pro

Researching Competition Like a Product Sherlock.

1.  Analyze their online presence. This is a no-brainer, but it's important to start by understanding your competitors' core offering. What are their features? What are their pricing plans? What are their marketing messages? What are they talking about? What are their customers saying about them?

2.  Use their strategy information available. Dive into financial reports, news articles, investor presentations. Analyze strategies, roadmaps and trends to get a glimpse of their planned future.

3.  Look at their product reviews. Product reviews can be a great source of insights into your competitors' strengths and weaknesses. What are customers saying about their products? What are they liking and disliking? Dive into your competitors' financial reports, news articles, and investor presentations. Analyze their strategies, roadmaps, and trends to get a glimpse into their future.

4.  Talk to your people. Connect with Industry leaders, experts and even new customers to explore any competitor info. Ask them what they think about industry in general, your competitors' products and services. What do they like? What do they dislike?

5.  Be Nosy. Okay, not the irritating kind. Try reverse engineering their products if you have access. Sigh up for trials, explore features and study their user experience. Sign up for your competitors' newsletters to know what’s new. The more you know about your competitors, the better equipped you'll be to compete with them.
