1 What is Competitor Analysis

What is Competitive Analysis?

As the name suggests, it is the process of comparing and analyzing competitors' products, a kind of horizontal analysis process with subjectivity; through the multi-dimensional horizontal comparison and analysis of the overall architecture, functionality, business model, product strategy and other dimensions of multiple products, so as to obtain a purposeful conclusion. How to analyze? We are here in accordance with the following points to expand one by one:Define the purpose, industry analysis, identify competitors, identify dimensions, search for data, compare and analyze, and output conclusions.

2 Clarification of purpose

It's important to start by saying what the purpose of competitive analysis itself is:
The first and most important purpose is for comparison; I learn when the other side is better, and I avoid when the other side is not.
The second purpose is validation and testing. This purpose can also be logically classified into the first category, but it is taken out here to emphasize the importance of competitive analysis in the early stage of the project. It is necessary to identify the market opportunity points through the competitive products, to verify the previous direction, and to get the most out of the comparison test in the later stage of the usability test.

Then we'll talk about how to clarify our own purpose:
The first thing is to clarify which aspect of the thing you want to do, what problem this thing specifically solves, what is the core business probably, what problem do you want to solve and what type of user needs do you want to fulfill? Is your product to fill a gap in the market, or to provide a better solution in the existing market? Only after clarifying these issues, competitive analysis can provide you with an effective reference.

For example, if your core business is to improve user experience, then the focus should be on the competitor's user feedback, interface design, functional ease of use and so on. And if your purpose is to increase market share, then the price strategy, sales channels, brand marketing, etc. will be the core of the analysis. Otherwise, even want to what do not know that also analyze what!

This also requires us to go next to further research on the industry to understand the front line.

3 Industry Analysis

Analysis of data is in fact essential to understand the industry overview, familiar with the industry development stage, understand the basic situation of competition within the industry, according to the principles of economics, the comprehensive application of statistics, econometrics and other analytical tools on the industry's economy on the operation of the situation, product production, sales, consumption, technology, industry competitiveness, the competitive landscape of the market, industry policy and other industry elements for an in-depth analysis, so as to discover the Industry operation and other internal economic laws, to further predict the future development trend of the industry.

The objective of this phase is to summarize the basic characteristics of the development of the industry in which it operates, in order to facilitate the subsequent refinement of the directional conclusions

3.1 The Four Elements

3.2 Specific steps

3.2.1 Collecting and analyzing information

1) Information on industry background

Policies, the state of the economy, how the industry came about, what problems it solved, what is the history of the industry

Methods:

PEST (macro-environmental etc. analysis)

  • Politics:
    National policies: Government laws, regulations and policy support (e.g., tax incentives, environmental policies, subsidies, etc.) are critical to the development of the industry. Find out if the government is providing policy support to the industry and if there are any new regulatory requirements or restrictions.
    Trade policy: Changes in domestic and foreign trade policy, especially tariffs, import and export regulations, and policies related to cross-border investment.
    Stability: The degree of stability in the political environment, with changes of government, social unrest, and foreign relations all having a significant impact on the industry.
    Industry regulation: Different countries or regions have different regulatory systems. Understand the development and implementation of regulations and standards (e.g., health, safety, environmental protection, etc.) in the industry to avoid risks caused by compliance issues.

  • Economy:
    Current economic conditions: Overall macroeconomic performance, such as gross domestic product (GDP), inflation, unemployment, interest rates, exchange rates, and other indicators, can influence an industry's cost structure, product prices, and consumer purchasing power.
    Market demand: Consumers' income levels and spending habits, as well as the state of balance between supply and demand in the market. Understand the consumers' ability to pay and the trend of changes in demand for products or services.
    Financing environment: Interest rates and the health of financial markets have a direct impact on the ability and cost of financing for enterprises. The ability of an enterprise to obtain funds through sources such as loans or equity financing is relevant to its likelihood of expansion or innovation.
    Raw material and resource prices: Economic conditions have a significant impact on the supply chain, and fluctuations in the prices of raw materials and energy in particular may have a direct impact on the industry's production costs.

  • Society:
    State of relevance to people's lives: Changes in consumers' lifestyles, values and preferences have a strong impact on the demand for products and services. For example, increased health and environmental awareness may drive demand for green products.
    Demographics: Analyzing the age, gender, education level, and income distribution of the population helps to understand the needs and behavioral characteristics of potential consumer groups. Factors such as an aging society and population growth rates can have a huge impact on certain industries.
    Socio-cultural and customary: different cultural backgrounds and social customs can affect the acceptance of products or services, local culture, group culture, etc.
    Consumer trends: popular trends in society (e.g. health, environmental protection, digitalization) directly affect the development of certain industries, such as the development of social media affecting changes in the advertising and sales industry (Jitterbug live banding).

  • Technology:
    Technological development: Analyze the current level of technology, technological innovation capacity and future development direction in the industry. For example, new technologies such as automation, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things have brought disruptive changes to certain industries.
    R&D investment: The degree of importance that firms and industries place on R&D has a direct impact on their ability to innovate. High-tech industries are particularly dependent on R&D investment, and innovation can give firms a competitive advantage.
    Technological infrastructure: The availability of infrastructure in the industry to support technological innovation and application, such as Internet penetration, telecommunication network coverage, and degree of production automation.
    Alternative technologies: In addition to the upgrading of already existing technologies, attention needs to be paid to alternative technologies that may replace existing products or services. For example, the threat of substitution of electric vehicles for traditional fuel vehicles.

Competitive Landscape - Porter's Five Forces Model Analysis

  • Existing competitors in the industry
    Market saturation: If the market is close to saturation, competition between firms will be more intense.
    Degree of differentiation: when the degree of differentiation of products and services is low, intense competitive behaviors such as price wars may increase.
    Industry concentration: whether there are some large, dominant companies in the industry and how these companies control market resources.
    Exit barriers: the difficulty for firms in the industry to exit (e.g. high fixed costs, contractual restrictions, etc.) When exit barriers are high, competitors are more inclined to stay within the market, leading to increased competition.

  • Bargaining power of suppliers
    Supplier concentration: The bargaining power of suppliers is enhanced if they are fewer in number and control key resources.
    Product differentiation: whether the product or service offered by the supplier is differentiated, scarce, or has limited substitutes.
    Switching Costs: How expensive it is for a company to change suppliers. The higher the switching costs, the greater the bargaining power of the supplier.
    Forward integration threats: the ability of suppliers to enter the industry directly by expanding downstream to compete with incumbents.

  • Bargaining power of buyers
    Purchaser concentration: If the industry has a relatively concentrated customer base or a high proportion of large customers, the purchaser has more bargaining power.
    Product differentiation: the degree of differentiation of a product or service. If the industry has a high degree of product homogenization, buyers can easily switch between competitors, thus increasing their bargaining power.
    Purchaser information symmetry: the more market information customers have, the more sensitive they are to price and product quality, and the more bargaining power they have.
    Backward Integration Threats: the ability of the buyer to produce the desired product themselves or the availability of a choice of substitutes.

  • Threat of potential entrants
    Barriers to entry: These include capital investment, technical requirements, branding, policies and regulations. For example, entry requires large initial investments or strict regulatory approvals will raise barriers to entry and diminish the threat of new entrants.
    Economies of scale: Existing firms that already have large-scale production capacity will be difficult for new entrants to match in the early stages.
    Brand Loyalty: the more loyal consumers are to existing brands, the more difficult it is for new entrants to attract customers.
    Channel control: Whether existing players in the industry already have a firm grip on sales channels, which may make it difficult for new entrants to find distribution routes.
    Legal barriers: government policies, regulations, and licensing restrictions on the industry.

  • Threat of substitute products
    Availability of alternatives: whether there are lower-priced, better performing or easier-to-use alternatives on the market.
    Performance/price ratio of alternatives: consumers are likely to choose alternatives when they offer better performance or better value for money.
    Switching Costs: How expensive it is for consumers to switch to an alternative product; when switching costs are low, the threat of an alternative product is greater.
    Innovativeness of substitutes: technological advances may lead to more efficient substitutes (e.g., e-books for traditional books).

Comparative learning: analyze the core competitiveness of Jieyin in the short video and e-commerce field, and learn its innovation points and success experience.
Validation test: through the analysis of competitors, verify the advantages of Jitterbug in e-commerce model and content community operation and its room for improvement.

  1. Industry Analysis
    The short video and content e-commerce industry, in which Jitterbit is located, has been growing rapidly in recent years, mainly benefiting from the popularization of the mobile Internet and the growth of user demand for content consumption. The following is an analysis of the industry in which Jitterbit is located:

PEST analysis
Politics (P):
/2023/12/31/
The government's regulation of the short video industry has become increasingly strict, requiring platforms to strengthen content auditing to prevent the spread of undesirable information. The e-commerce business also needs to comply with corresponding laws and regulations, such as advertising compliance and e-commerce taxation.
The short video industry and e-commerce platforms also face legal constraints related to data privacy and content review.

Economy (E):
/Content/2024/03-29/
Economic growth slowed, but online entertainment and e-commerce continued to grow strongly. Consumers are more inclined to shop and entertain online, especially in the post-pandemic era, and demand for content e-commerce is growing rapidly.
Advertising revenue and e-commerce transaction commissions have become the main source of income for Jitterbug. The consumption ability and income level of users directly affect the platform's cash flow ability.

Social(s):
The young group (18-35 years old) is the main user group of Jieyin, and the users' demand for entertainment and interaction is very high. Through short videos and live broadcasts and other interactive methods, the platform has attracted a large number of users.
Social e-commerce, live streaming with goods and other new modes fit the user's consumption behavior, and short videos are more closely combined with shopping needs.

Technology (T):
Artificial intelligence, big data, video processing and other technologies are the core forces driving the rapid development of the short video industry. Through personalized recommendation algorithms, Jitterbug recommends content to users that matches their interests, which greatly improves user stickiness.
The introduction of technologies such as e-commerce payment, logistics tracking, and AR/VR also enhances the immersive experience of shopping for users.
