HAVE YOU DONE A COMPETITION ANALYSIS
So you've come up with a new invention or innovative business model for your service. Now in the research & development phase you got to educate yourself in your competitive business environment.
It would be good to complete a 'Competitve Intelligence Analysis' which covers the:
Industry and specific market you are entering
Competition & substitute products in your market
Suitable vendors to align your business with
Perceived costs and benefits of how your customers perceive your product/service.
Going forward your business needs to find ways to stay innovative, figure out how your
product/service can be differentiated from the competition and define its position in the market. At the same time continuously research ways to raise benefits and reduce costs!
