Does this resonate with you?
You know how you may not be happy with the level of growth you are experiencing. New and existing competitors are bringing out new products weekly. You may feel your competitive advantage is threatened. Or worse still, you are not sure you have an advantage anymore. Maybe you are unsure who your competitors are or where your market is heading. Or want to move into new markets or investments, but want more certainty before you make your move.
You just want to know where you are, what others are doing, what the future could hold, and what you can do about it.
Competitive Intelligence may be the answer, but you are unsure how to proceed. And you are wary of platforms boasting a quick fix when they are so obviously not.
We are here for you, but why Octopus?
Octopus provides the answers to the questions you need to ask
We go further to speak to the right people. In the right way, and then look for patterns. We are brilliant at asking the right questions at the right time & seeing themes reveal themselves. We reach around the world & can travel to find what we seek. We do whatever it takes to get the job done & speak to the right people.
A tenacious approach
A background in military intelligence, backed by MBA management-level experience, gives us a unique edge when pursuing the answers to your questions. Tenacity balanced with discipline opens up a whole world of information inaccessible to others.
Straight-talking feedback
Not for us, some ten-step model with a clever name. No pseudo-academic description packed with business school speak. We produce useable competitive intelligence in a plain English report, presentation, or monthly bulletin. We also understand that competitive intelligence is way more than creating a battle card. It’s about analysis, context and the situation you find yourself in.
A strictly commercial focus
No out-of-the-box thinking here (all this means is you are still trapped inside). We help you define the questions you need to ask to get the answers you need to know. It’s a simple but highly effective process.
A personal service for you
We don’t pull industry reports off shelves, & it may be easier, but we’d be just like the rest. We don’t clock watch because you pay for the answers, not the time it takes for us to get them.
We have never knowingly failed a client
We’re sure you get the idea. We answer the questions you need to know without the fluff. Then, we can even work with you to create some actions from our insight.
We help you be more competitive.
