Overview

Powerful market intelligence involves numerous steps such as information mapping, data collection and analysis about the economy, competitors, market growth, trends, regulations and customer behaviour.

All this knowledge needs to be gathered through a consistent and regular process, thus maximising the power behind data and making it meaningful for business strategy creation.

Market intelligence comes from the strategic use of a carefully analysed collection of key information. It is imperative for better decision-making, success, and even survival for firms today. Interest and investment in market intelligence is increasing, as firms see its power and benefit.

Solid market intelligence can dramatically impact a company's success. A firm that embraces business intelligence uses it at all levels of the organisation fostering a culture where everyone thinks 'intelligence', and contributes to its evolution and success.
