If you are like most entrepreneurs, you do not have the staff to collect all the marketing intelligence available, nor do you have the budget to buy all the latest market reports. And even if you did, you probably still lack the manpower to quickly translate the data into a comprehensive marketing plan.
So what is the next BEST thing? You can reverse engineer the trend. You do this by studying the actions of the leaders in the industry in order to do an analysis of their strategies and tactics: Have they pulled out of a market? Are they advertising more heavily on social media sites? Have they changed their Web site to reflect a new customer concern?
By studying these leaders and their strategies and tactics, and by reviewing the local trends in your community of users, you will soon start to detect the current patterns in the marketplace. You can then steer your business much more directly toward a successful future.
