MenuHow can I easily analyze the information of 100+ websites daily?
Answers
Hi,
I don't have a simple solution that I could suggest to you now. But I have a question for you: if you found a product, that would do that for you (a computer software, that would get all the information/updates from different websites, combine it in one place and optimize for you to absorb) would you buy it?
I am a data analyst and my specialty is text analytics. I can take large amounts of text and find some meaning in it. For example, get a set of law documents and programmatically analyze it to build an argument; or I can take pictures of food from someone's instagram account and predict person's weight in 2020. So, I have an idea how to solve a problem like yours.
What I can recommend for you right now, is a VA (virtual assistant). I have one myself. She takes care of the information flow. Reading, summarizing, writing lists and notes, making charts, etc. It isn't very expensive, and you can hire some great, highly educated people that are undervalued by an average employer (stay-home moms, fresh grads, people living in remote locations, etc).
This would depend largely on the kinds of information you are looking to analyze. Sites like compete.com and alexa.com provide traffic metrics for multiple sites with paid level memberships - but I'm not sure that is what you are looking for.
Feel free to shoot me a message with more details and I'll be happy to share resources that are geared to your specific needs.
Cheers,
Ryan

How do you get access to the right people to validate an idea?
The art of the "cold pitch" is definitely something that needs to be worked on, and doesn't come naturally to everyone. A couple of quick tips: 1. 4 is not a big enough target group, you've got to cast a bigger net. Try pitching 20, and aim to get 3-5 responses. 2. When sending a cold email, really think about what you are offering them. Whilst you'll get the odd good egg that simply wants to help - you can't expect entrepreneurs and small biz owners to take time out of their day to answer your questions. To counter, why not tell them you're conducting research in the space, and would be happy to send the finds/reports back to them in a nice format, which could in turn help their business. 3. Don't give up, keep hustling. Try changing around the emails slightly, track which emails convert into responses, and fine tune from there. Good luck and feel free to book a call if you want to chat more. Best James.James PemberJP

How much time do you spend on google (or other search engine) when you are searching informations on a specific topic ?
As a tech marketer - I am always looking for the fastest, cheapest yet reliable research in order to create competitive intelligence internal documents, stats for blog posts, etc. Some people live by the "if it isn't on the first page, it doesn't matter" when it comes to leveraging search engines as a research tool. However, often when we are looking for value, we have to realize that anything REALLY worthwhile these days from a content perspective is typically gated behind a web form, or nestled inside a blog post. So, expect to spend a few hours in order to get through all the form gates, and also make sure you're using as specific and direct search terms as possible - then getting more generic if results are not ideal. Some other tips: -Have a few "burner" email addresses setup with gmail or hotmail, etc. - these allow you to get content when filling out forms to get White Papers, Reports, Case Studies, etc. without your primary inbox getting stuffed with marketing emails. -In the form fill process, if available put "student" or "researcher" as typically sales reps pass by these "leads" when the form gets dumped into the CRM queue. -Don't forget specialty search sites and tools like Wolfram Alpha for more "numbers" derived searches. -Also, like your question here - always seek the wisdom of crowds in addition to machine learning algorithms! Hope this is helpful! Search on!Martin SchneiderMS

Is there a way to use paid advertising to test a domain name?
Yes. Use the "Link Text" in your facebook ads to A/B test various domain names. To do this, simply launch a few identical ads, and only change the link text to say the variation of the domain name you are considering. The ad with the highest CTR (not conversion rate or other KPI) will be the one that sparks the most interest in your target audience. Note: one domain may have a high relevance to one audience, but low relevance with another. So this tactic should only be used if you have a very specific demo you are targeting.Alex GlennAG

How can I determine the TAM and SAM of an SAAS company I am looking to startup?
Total Addressable (at least in the US) can be built based on market data sets, both free and for fee. For early child care centers, Market Data Retrieval and NCES (publicly available data set) are two recommended sources. For Serviceable, that depends on a) your own business / operating model and b) the current and projected penetration of comparable competitors in market. For the former, consider things like technology usage and implementation capabilities. For the latter, if you have identified clear competitors, it is unlikely that you will have access to accurate info. So, if you can estimate these numbers and reverse-engineer, that's a good starting point. This would also be a great time to consider how your SAAS product is differentiated and will give you a chance to think through different scenario models for customer "switching" (from an existing competitor product to your own).David SkrobelaDS
