One of the most common mistakes people make in marketing is ignoring their competitors. When you are one click away from your global competitors, you don’t want your prospective clients more informed about their options than you are.
To compete in any business, you need to understand where the competitive bar is set in your industry. Who are you competing with on search engines? Who else is advertising in your category? What are they offering, and how do you compare? How easy do they make it to buy from them?
Where are you going to fit into the mix? On what basis will you compete? Can you afford to play the same game, or do you need to rethink your approach?
