Competitor Vulnerability Study
Uncover potentially exploitable vulnerabilities amongst your closest competitors by measuring competitor customer satisfaction and loyalty.
The competitor vulnerability study was invented by LeadingEdge. Or at the very least, we came up with the idea on our own. Think of it as a “mini” customer satisfaction and loyalty study, but for your closest competitors. (Click the hyperlink above if you’re not already familiar with customer satisfaction and loyalty studies.) It’s a web-based survey of 200+ of your competitor’s customers to gauge their satisfaction and loyalty.
The point of conducting this study is to identify and subsequently exploit your competitor’s weaknesses, such as potential dissatisfaction with:
- Product usability
- Product functionality
- Product responsiveness
- Product scalability
- Technical support services
- Consulting services
- Channel partners
- Pricing for maintenance renewals
- Product innovation
- Regional dissatisfaction (e.g., Europe, Asia, Latin America)
Competitor vulnerability studies can be conducted in as little as two months. Insights that you gain can help you increase your sales opportunity win rates and potentially help you persuade your competitor’s customers to trade in their software or hardware for your company’s products.
