    What Is a Competitive Analysis?

    A competitive analysis is a research technique that is used to identify direct and indirect competitors of a particular company and analyze their competitor profiles accordingly. This helps a company to create smart strategies to outperform competitors and capture market share. A thorough competitor analysis will also help you to uncover competitor strategies and discover new opportunities and market trends.

    How to Conduct a Competitive Analysis?

    • Firstly, gather market intelligence information and identify your competitors. Use a mind map to categorize them as direct and indirect competitors. You may also use criteria such as market share, scale of operations and market position to further categorize the competitors.
    • Use a SWOT analysis to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the main competitors and a Porter’s five forces analysis to analyze the market. You can use Creately’s professional templates for these use cases to get a head start.
    • Share your workspace via link sharing and invite all relevant team members to add feedback and additional information. Conduct discussions on the same workspace to capture information and get the team to conduct research together.
    • Once you have completed the competitor analysis, conduct a brainstorming session together with the relevant team members to identify strategies that can be used to outperform them.
    • You can also share your findings simply by exporting your diagrams in JPEG, PNG, SVG and PDF formats to be presented in reports or presentations; or embed them in any site or intranet.
