Competitive Intelligence vs. Corporate
Espionage

CI is more like putting
p g
pieces of a puzzle
together….

….than Spy vs. Spy
Nathan Rosen 3

Market Intelligence:
• It’s not about being the first to have the news

• It is about being the “go‐to” team when news
breaks or your “feet‐on‐the‐street” hear items of
interest
• MI/CI can turn raw intelligence into actionable
intelligence that can help a company succeed.
f p
• MI should be at the hub of a network of experts
willing to contribute items of interest and expert
views.

Myth:
Intelligence is the CI professional’s

Reality:

The CI professional builds

[factoring in copyright & other IP concerns]

Analogy:  Similar to emotional conversations,
where “speaker” may or may not
Intend for public [or so much of them] t “h ” [have access to] it
I t df bli to “hear” it
Fully  comprehend others’ valuation of the information
Understand originators perspective – “But I only told  that to…
And they promised not to tell anyone…”

Information Leakage Points , lag time similar to embargos…
President & “Chief Archer” Reuse by others clients, ex employees
Reuse by others – clients, ex employees

Surgical Browsing
Identify Potential High‐Value Sites
Navigate Manually
Create Your Own Site Index Using a Browser

It can include
Downloading {smaller} sites into Adobe to browse offline
Looking for cross‐linking to site, especially several layers in
Locating historical content in caches  or archiving sites
Be Careful
203.258.2383 While  limiting searches by doc type [pdf etc] is effective
917.591.6732 fax
www.targetedknowledge.com Searchable layers can mask  them behind other file types


Leveraging Who You Know, Digitally & Offline

What do people in that field read, on & offline ?
What would they consider a waste of time?

A large part of the challenge is indexing…
And you need  to ID what they “miss”

Sometimes there’s no GPS, must already know
where you’re going, or at least a mid‐point…

Needles in Haystacks aren’t invisible,
but they can be more work to locate
Some even hide in plain sight

Have a plan, but flex it as needed
Take good notes, bookmark good leads, save best hits
Might not find them again or they change

ALWAYS Consider the Source

Manage time spent, don’t get lost
Anna F. Shallenberger Be Flexible, but still…

WHEN = During each step of the CI process

KITs Development

WHO = Collaboration with our peers

Information
professionals

Market Competitive
Research Intelligence

Market research = focus on customers (not exclusively)
Competitive intelligence = focus on competitors (not exclusively)
Info pros = focus on both+++ (technology, economics,
government regulations, etc.)

WHO = Collaboration with our end users/clients

Development

Porter’s 5 Forces Model: If these are the important industry
forces, which groups and individuals might have the most
knowledge about/experience with each of them?

WHY = Collaboration stimulates information
sharing from different functional areas

Customer Sales Marketing
Product Service Strategic
Managers Planning
Executives
R & D
Legal &

Relations Resources

Comm

Level of support – in terms of knowledge and enthusiasm –
provided by these seemingly unrelated groups of collaborators
= surprisingly productive, efficient and effective
Source: Ellen Naylor, Business Intelligence Source, May 2008

37

8/5/2011

WHY = Collaboration “sweet pot”

CI & IPs

Strategic Marketing &
Planning Sales

Product
Development

Where it all comes together to produce successful CI deliverables
and insights
Planning – what are our KITs, intelligence goals?
Collection – enhancement and expansion of our efforts
Analysis – why is the information important? what does it mean?
Dissemination

WHY = Broader and deeper dissemination of
information and intelligence products

Gain awareness and visibility
Gain awareness and visibility
Reach new users
Create and grow demand for information services
Provide examples of value of services provided
Collect information through new sources
Become more entrenched in the CI process

38

8/5/2011

HOW = Collaborating with end users and peers

Cross‐functional teams – formal and informal
Someone from Product Management + someone from CI +
Someone from Product Management + someone from CI +
someone from the Library + someone from Sales, etc., etc. =
a very knowledgeable team capable of executing on a broad
collection plan and in‐depth analysis of competitive activities
Who leads it? May not matter – you’re collaborating!

HOW = Cross‐functional teams (formal)

Intelligence deliverable, Example 1: Monthly Rival Report
Individual members of cross‐functional team collected
information as “assigned,” then met to prioritize, analyze
and disseminate it

39

8/5/2011

HOW = Cross‐functional teams (informal)

Intelligence deliverable, Example 2: Quarterly Q in Review.
Collection of information regarding quarterly financial
reporting (public companies)
Research team consulted with in‐house financial experts to
analyze/understand its meaning and impact


Say thank you make it fun, Example: Scoop of the Month Award
Say thank you – make it fun Example: Scoop of the Month Award
Monthly ice cream party with recognition for individual with
best competitive “scoop”
Ice cream gift cards (Ben & Jerry’s!) for individual with best
competitive “scoop” and for participant prizes

40

8/5/2011


Say thank you – make them look good, Example: Thank You note
Send special thank you (more than e‐mail note)
Copy his or her supervisor, making them aware of collaboration
Tell how the information was used

SUMMARY
Collaborate beyond intelligence collection
You can collaborate with numerous knowledgeable
individuals in some context
2‐way communication – talk and listen, but listen more
Take the lead – get/keep the ball rolling
Follow the lead – b
F ll h l d be a valuable contributor
l bl ib
Quid pro quo – make your collaborators look good and
they’ll help you look good
Make collaboration fun
