Ehsan's Recommendation

Competitive intelligence is only valuable if it changes decisions. Most companies collect competitor data and file it in a document nobody reads. Nooks can automate the collection and summarization. But the real work is the quarterly strategy review: what did we learn, and what are we doing differently? Without that review, intelligence is just organized noise.
