Competitive intelligence is essential for businesses to build a strong online profile. Because the vast majority of consumers start the customer journey with a search engine, SEO is not an optional digital marketing strategy, it’s central to your overall marketing efforts. 

Yet the competition on search engines is tough. If you’re not visible on the first page of Google, attracting customers through digital channels is limited.

Understanding the digital landscape before investing in digital markets will save you a lot of time, money and frustration in the long-term.

POWER YOUR MARKETING STRATEGY

Digital marketing statistics reveal today’s consumers are more inclined to stay loyal to brands they trust. Building strong relationships requires your website and other online channels. Providing your clients with a smooth and stress-free user-experience is essential.

Consequently, competitor analysis heavily influences your content strategy, your marketing message and how to develop a brand identity consumers trust. To capture your market share, you have to understand the players in the market.

  • Consumers who trust a brand are more than twice as likely to stay loyal to a brand they trust, even in the face of disruption, such as a trendy or innovative competitor; 62 per cent versus 29 per cent. (Edelman)
  • 67% of customers say that a good reputation may get them to try a product, but they will stop buying it if they don’t come to trust the company behind the product. (Smart Insights)
  • Leverage customer insights to better understand who your customers are and what they want from the relationship, and use that knowledge to drive your program strategy, reward design, and personalization. (Oracle)
