It’s no secret that I love using blogs to gather competitive intelligence. In any single Internet marketing campaign at any time, I don’t spend a single penny until I have found at least 10 or 15 blogs that relate to whatever it is I’m selling. I read through each and every one of those blogs for at least three or four days usually longer; more like a week. If I have a lot of time before the marketing campaign begins I’ll spend as much as two to three weeks reading blogs within the industry.

You can find out so much about your industry, your niche, your market, your product, and your potential customers, just by reading a few blogs that relate to whatever it is you’re selling. The hardest part is finding those specific blogs that relate to your specific industry. And that’s what I’m going to talk about today in this article.

So the question remains, how can you find specific blogs that relate to your specific industry or product?

Well there are two or three places that I like to go to search for blogs on any given industry. The first is Technorati, which is a sort of search engine for blogs. Go to their website and you can see that it’s very easy to search for blogs. Just type at the top of the page and away you go. Now if I were you I would type in my specific keyword that I’m targeting first of all, or you can type in the industry name you are in, or a generic product name that relates to your product… the point is just get in there and poke around and figured out how things work. I have no idea how many blogs Technorati has indexed but it is many many millions. In July 2006 Technorati announced that they were tracking over 50 million blogs.

]]>

Now that’s been 3 1/2 years so you can imagine how many more are in there. Especially in the last couple of years blogging has really exploded, so if it’s out there you can expect to find it at Technorati.

The next two places that I use are probably more obvious. The first one is Google. You can use Google to find everything and anything and I’m sure you already know how to do that, so I won’t spend any more time talking about it.

But there may be a feature of Google that you don’t know about and it’s the third place that I used to find blogs. It’s called Google blog search, which I think is very aptly named. Don’t you just love how Google names things? They don’t mess around fancy names do they? Google blog search, Google talk, Google voice, Google Mail, Google analytics, they generally don’t spend any money on marketing brand names. But I’m getting off the point…

You can find Google blog search by just going to Google and typing in Google blog search. It will be the first thing that comes up I promise you. Get in there and play around with it; search for a few things and you’ll find it is a very useful tool to have when looking for blogs as a competitive research tool.

And that’s it! Those are the three places that I use most of the time to search for blogs on any given industry from a competitive research point of view. I hope you found this helpful, and thanks for reading.

Defining and accomplishing performance that will make your company the best to your customers and markets requires a six step road map. These steps are deployed in sequence because the output of each step becomes the input for the next. For example, articulating corporate culture such as defining your competitive market performance before creating your customer value proposition will likely result in ineffective allocation of department resources. The first two steps provide critical information and analysis about external market characteristics, customer requirements as well as competitor performance.

 Each of these first two step requires structure elements that must be carefully defined and thoroughly deployed before articulating your corporate culture. This means you must study and understand your markets, customer values and competitive performance before allocating people, performance, policies and product performance. Corporate culture, step three, consists of structuring all resources to meet customer and market expectations. selecting and effectively using resources required being competitive with markets and customers before scheduling and planning company resources.  Competitive growth requires constant analysis and adjustment of internal processes, resources and skills. When your corporate message of competitive performance, operating policies, company values and market expectations are articulated, you are ready to deploy steps four, five and six. These internal steps must have strong directions and guidance from your corporate culture efforts. Imagine defining a process improvement project without corporate values or directions.

 Step One: Analyze Markets, Competitor and Competitive Productivity

The first step of competitive growth requires careful study and quantification of markets, customers and competitors. You must know the demand metrics of your market definition. They determine the potential and requirements for your sales strategy, cost structure, operational performance levels and your competitive productivity objectives. These metrics change over time, as markets, competitors and customers change. Semi-annual review and adjustments are necessary. Company operations must accommodate these change. There are four action elements in this component that your must master. You should analyze the performance of these elements at least semi-annually, they are: 

Establish your market definition and boundaries
Analyze and know your demand metrics such as market share, size and growth
Create and manage a competitive intelligence system
Measure and calculate your competitive productivity against your competitors

 Step Two: Deploy Your Customer Value Proposition

The second step consists of defining and measuring your customer value proposition. The success of your company is primarily based on how well you meet the expectations of your markets and provides the highest values to your customers and markets. The company with the best value will likely attract the most customers and grow the fastest. The trick to this simple equation is to understand customer values and assure your performance for these values are the best among all customers and competitors. There are four action elements in this component that your must understand and achieve. You should analyze the performance of these elements at least semi-annually, they are:

]]>

 

Define and publish customer values
Rate customer value performance for you and your competitors
Identify customer value strengths and weaknesses for you and your competitors
Implement process improvements for your weaknesses

 

Step Three: Articulate Your Corporate Culture

The third component of competitive growth is articulating your corporate culture. Your corporate culture provides a unifying communication of what needs to be accomplished by all employees. This step has seven action elements and communicates corporate values, performance standards and required operating results by all employees. Corporate culture provides a common direction and vision to be accomplishment all employees must follow. Without a strong deployment, sustaining competitive performance can not be maintained. There are seven action elements to master within this component. There are four topic elements in this component, they are:

 

Define and communicate competitive market performance metrics
Communicate corporate goals and values to all employees
Budget and acquire resources and staff to accomplish goals
Publish department goals and objectives; require compliance
Achieve required process capabilities to accomplish objectives
Document business policies
Define and enhance your core competencies 

 

Step Four: Implement Process Improvements

  Step four is implementing process improvements to eliminate waste, improve productivity and exceed customer expectations. You must also improve your weak performance to your customer value drivers identify in step two. Process improvement requires using the fewest resources to provide the highest value to markets and customers. These objectives requires careful analysis of business and production processes. While eliminating waste and increasing value through process and flow analysis is important, lean process improvement must also focus on achieving competitive productivity. There are five action elements in this step. 

 

Document and publish your future state value stream map
Identify bottlenecks, queues and inefficient within your value stream
Conduct process analysis and productivity studies
Implement process improvement projects for inefficiencies 

  

Step Five: Implement A Resource Scheduling System

Step five consists of planning and scheduling company resources to most effectively meet customer expectations. This means managing inventor levels, material flows and production schedules to meet all customer deliveries 100% of the time. This process typically requires selecting and implementing a computer scheduling system such as ERP to coordinate detail tasks and schedules. It is important to complete the lean process improvements step first so resources are used accurately for true priority management.  This step has five action elements.

 

Document business and manufacturing procedures
Establish and document production and sales plans
Engineer work standards and best practices
Deploy a resource scheduling and planning system
Manage production schedules, customer orders and inventory plan

 

Step Six: Manage and Adjust Internal Resources to Reflect Market Change

The last step is using sales and operating planning  (S&OP) to manage performance of the competitive growth process. S&OP is a structured process to frequently evaluate how current production performance meets current sales results. Competitive growth S&OP extends this balancing to include the action elements of the six steps. S&OP involves all departments of the company to analyze how well the company is meeting customer and market expectations. This includes current and future expectations. This process requires that you measure daily and weekly internal and external performance. Internal adjustments are necessary when external markets change. There are four action elements:

 

Deploy the sales and operations planning process
Monitor external and competitor changes
Evaluate internal performance metrics
Adjust resources and methods to rebalance performance

 

Making your company the best requires understanding the needs and expectations of your customers and markets and then adjusting company resources to best meet those expectations. There is a logical sequence to this process. You must first gather data and information about your markets, customers and competitors. This information allows you to accurately define and measure your performance to customer value drivers. These drivers quantify customer and market expectations.  Armed with accurate customer value drivers, you can define and deploy an effective corporate culture that all employees can understand and follow. Step four involves implementing a focus process improvement program that is designed to exceed the performance of all competitors. Efficient process and resource allows for the efficient scheduling and planning of products and services for customer orders and inventory investment. Finally the S&OP process used to measure performance and make adjustments as markets, customers and competitor changes.

 

The competitive growth process is a holistic method that makes at least 36 months to complete for the typical company. There are 28 action elements across six steps. Each element requires a detail project plan and dedicated resources to implement performance expectations. Being the best requires a strong and structured infrastructure. It also requires competitive productivity. This means providing the best product at the lowest price. Once you achieve this performance, you must maintain it by adjusting and changing processes, products, performance and values as you markets, customers and competitors change.

Question by MindtheIgnorance(SUSPENDED): Do you think this is best to do to an ex friend?
We are not going to be friends again. I already told her what I thought about her. SHe is really mean and obnoxious and I have a feeling she is jealous of me by the signs she has been giving me.
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW: (if you don’t go to the part that says ANYWAY)
She says what I do is stupid like playing this game and then SHE does it.
she’s a follower so she is fake.
She DOES NOT care about your feelings only hers
She lies like a hell lot even though the proof is right there!
(for example she says she has these color eyes JUST because I said my eye color was changing. It’s not important -__-)
She humiliates me in front of her friend and mine online

So one day for April Fools since she was telling me a lot of lies. And honestly I didn’t know whether to stop because she always says shut up to me, She was getting on my nerves. Okay once I said to her, “Hey how are you eyes? Dazzling huh? Hey this guy speaks Spanish let’s speak to him in spanish! Oh she has blonde hair also! (brown) eww that reminded me of the time you farted (I swear i didn’t know that this hurted her) and she got really mad.
OMG I am getting mad and you want to know why? SHe has always been being a brat to me last year. She was jealous of my intelligence and says oh but IM stronger. Like who gives a fudge?

ANYWAY I will be studying me @ss of in summer. I have been studying for years for this high school. It is the best on in my state and the most competitive. A brat like her would fail if she came there.
This is what I want to do. I want to call her from my cellphone because she doesn’t know that number and brag about how i passed.
Sorry if I sound immature, but this girl has been giving me problems.

Question by Ally: In your opinion, which is the best dog for agility, obedience, canine good citizenship and family ownership?
All my life I have adopted abused and neglected adult dogs from shelters and rescues. This time around I would really like to get a purebred puppy from a reputable breeder.

I want a dog of even temperament. Is known for it’s intelligence and affectionate disposition. I want a dog that is lively but gentle. Would work wonderfully in a house with small children (I know socialization is important)
I want a dog that isn’t imposing as I would like to train and register the dog as a canine good citizen. Ease of training is very important.
I would like to do agility. Not on a super competitive level but for fun and bonding so a top notch agility dog is only of moderate importance.
I want a dog that is active but not so extremely active it becomes bored when it’s not constantly being walked or entertained. I don’t want a dog that will run me ragged. The dog should be able to lay down in the floor and relax sometimes instead of running around constantly.
I don’t want a dog that is overdependent but I don’t want one that is completely and entirely independent either.
Shedding is fine as long as tumbleweeds of fur aren’t covering the floor.
Preferably medium to large breed.
I don’t want a crossbreed. I want a purebred.

Question by Phil: Best way to succeed in college after screwing around in high school?
I really didn’t do very well in high school and the only reason i got into the university i did was because i did well on my ACT. I have never worked hard in school but do not lack the intelligence to do well. I probably have gaps in my learning, primarily math, and was wondering how i should go about trying to close the gaps i have? Also does college continue off knowledge in high school or are most classes kind of a fresh start. I can be competitive in classes such as literature and really classes that are not like math; they do not require previously learned material to do well. Sorry for the rant, basically how can i develop study habits and a work ethic i have never really had, and how can i close gaps in my learning when i don’t even know where my gaps are?

Best answer:

Answer by Happy
Hi Phil:

You sound motivated, and that is a great first step. I work for a very large university, and your situation is not unusual.

You will most likely need to take math as a general elective, assuming you are not majoring in a math-intensive subject. It will not necessarily build off cumulative knowledge from HS, and often starts from the beginning…say as in Algebra I. You should have an academic advisor available to you, so be sure to ask for advice. If you are just seeking to get 3 credits for a general education course, no need to be a hero, take the most manageable course that meets your graduation criteria.

Now, as for new good habits…many, many people who did fair in HS, end up excelling in college. I bet you will be one of them! Remember, you are choosing to go (or you know it is the right thing to do), and you are going to get to take more classes in areas that interest you. Plus, someone is paying for those classes, right? That is always a big motivator. And…it’s a fresh start. You are a totally new and maturing young adult. Why not turn over a new leaf, and learn new habits. Not to sound too much like a parent, but this is a wonderful time in your live, so seize the day – or carpe diem

A little advice, have fun – but do your work first. You know what I mean — College brings with it many temptations – reward yourself, only when you are keeping up with your studying. That’s a good balance.

Last piece of advice: 1) Use index cards for anything and everything. Sort them in small intervals, don’t put them away until every fact, definition, detail is memorized. It can be quite fun. 2) Use the campus library. Can be social, but most want to study. A day spent in the library on the weekend or weeknight, is like two in front of the TV. Don’t text or facebook while studying 3) Reward yourself for small successes. All work and no play is not good for anyone.

Best of luck in your first semester!

Kindly,
~Annie Starr~
