Reference or business tip
Don't just collect—analyze. Spending 30 minutes analyzing is more valuable than spending 3 hours collecting. Focus on 'why' not just 'what'. Share insights with sales team—competitive intel increases win rates by 20-30%. Update your monitoring keywords quarterly. Source: Crayon
