Challenge.
Screen markets, identify competitors, and assess viability opportunities for clients.
Our customer's team has a critical mission: identifying "white space" opportunities—areas where a customer pain point exists, but competitors have not yet effectively addressed it.
Our customer needed to screen markets, identify competitors, and assess whether there was a viable opportunity for their clients, focusing on competition and market research to build new ventures.
They relied on slower and less accurate web research from data gathering to analyzing results and assessing the market implications of new products. These methods allowed for only superficial searches, failing to go deep into competitors' strengths and services, making this process very time-consuming, and much of it was spent collecting data.
Pablo stated, “Traditional methods, including internal databases and web searches, provided the most logical answers but missed market depth.”
