How it runs

What we build, step by step.

This is the usual shape. Yours gets built around how your team actually does the job.

  1. 01

    A short list of competitors to watch

    The five to ten businesses you really lose work to, agreed with you up front.

  2. 02

    Their public activity read each month

    Their websites, published prices and offers, the ads they're running in public ad libraries, their newest reviews and any jobs they're hiring for.

  3. 03

    Only the changes kept

    What's new since last month and what it might mean, such as a competitor hiring two new techs or dropping a service you offer.

  4. 04

    One page in your inbox

    A short note you can read in five minutes, with any trade news worth knowing added at the end.

Shown with software we see a lot. If your team uses something else, we build it into that instead.

Built for your business

Same job, different business. We build yours.

Two firms in the same trade rarely run a job the same way. Different software, different steps, different people signing off. We build it for your business, around how your team actually does the job.

  • Your steps

    Built around the order your team already works in, odd exceptions included.

  • Your software

    Runs inside the tools you already pay for, set up the way you use them.

  • Your rules

    Your wording, your limits, your sign-offs. Nothing generic goes out in your name.

You sign off

Your team keeps the final say.

The note is for information only. Any change to your prices, offers or ads is the owner's decision.

The job, before and after.

How it runs today

You hear about a competitor's new offer from a customer who mentions it on a quote visit. By then they've been running it for two months.

What we build

  • A short list of competitors to watch
  • Their public activity read each month

  • One page in your inbox

A month in

You hear about a competitor's new offer within a month of it starting, not two months later from a customer, and nobody checks their websites by hand.

FAQ

Is it OK to watch local competitors like this?

Yes. Competitor watch only reads what they publish for everyone to see: their website, public ads and reviews. It doesn't copy their material or contact them.

Can competitor watch cover trade news too?

Yes. We add a few trade sources you trust, and anything relevant to your business goes at the end of the monthly note.
