Monitor and compare competitors’ channels
Marketing monitors competitors’ social media channels and compares them with its own
Fits: Social media & content · Marketing & communications · Leaders & strategy · Sales
You regularly see which topics, formats and posting frequency work for competitors and where you can stand out. Decisions about your channel are based on observations instead of gut feeling.
Is this for you?
- You want to know how you compare with three to five competitors.
- So far, someone takes a look now and then, but nobody records what stands out.
First step today
Choose three competitors and, for each one, note the last ten posts on one channel in a table with date, format, topic and visible reactions. Have them compared with the template below.
How to go about it
- Define competitors and questions
- Capture public posts
- Have the comparison analysed
- Separate figures from assumptions
- Derive ideas, do not copy
- Repeat regularly
