Good to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

We already keep an eye on our competitors' websites and social media. What does your service do that we're not already doing?

That's an excellent and essential first step! Where we go deeper is in analyzing the strategy behind what you see on the surface. While you see their latest Instagram post, we see the data on its engagement rate compared to their average, whether they're putting ad spend behind it, and who it's targeted to.

Our analysis goes beyond a surface-level check to uncover:

Their advertising strategy: Where they spend their ad dollars (Google, Facebook, etc.) and what messages they're using.
Their SEO performance: The exact keywords they rank for that you don't, and how they earned that ranking.
Their email marketing funnels: The path they use to nurture leads into customers.
Their true share of voice: How often they are mentioned across the web compared to your destination.

We provide the "why" and "how" behind their public-facing marketing.

We know who our direct competitors are down the road. Who else do you look at?

That's a key part of our strategic process. We analyze your competitive landscape on three levels:

Direct Competitors: The other resorts, attractions, or destinations that offer a similar experience in your immediate area.
Indirect Competitors: Other options a traveler might choose instead of you. For a ski resort, this could be another resort in a different state or even a warm-weather beach vacation.
Aspirational Competitors: The market leaders you look up to. By analyzing the best-in-class destinations, we can identify proven strategies that you can adapt and apply to your own marketing.

We're worried about just getting a big report full of data. How do you make the analysis actionable?

This is the most important part of our service. A data report is useless without a game plan. Our analysis is always delivered with a clear SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) and a prioritized list of actionable recommendations.

We won't just tell you "Your competitor ranks #1 for 'best family ski package'." We'll tell you why they rank, show you the weaknesses in their content, and deliver a strategic plan for how you can create a better page to compete and win that traffic. The analysis is just the beginning; the actionable strategy is the real deliverable.

What specific areas of our competitors' marketing do you analyze?

Our analysis is comprehensive, covering the full digital footprint of your competitors. This typically includes:

Website & SEO Performance: Content, page speed, mobile experience, keyword rankings, and backlink profile.
Paid Advertising Strategy: Estimated budget, ad copy, and landing pages for Google Ads and social media ads.
Social Media Strategy: Content themes, engagement rates, audience growth, and video strategy.
Email Marketing & Content: Lead generation tactics, newsletter strategy, and major content pillars (blogs, guides, etc.).
Pricing & Special Offers: Analysis of public-facing packages, promotions, and pricing structure.
Online Reputation: Review volume, average star ratings, and sentiment analysis across major review sites.

Is this a one-time project or an ongoing service?

It can be both, depending on your needs. Many of our clients start with a comprehensive deep-dive analysis to build a new annual marketing strategy. From there, we offer ongoing seasonal monitoring to track shifts in the market, keep an eye on new competitor campaigns, and ensure you can stay agile and proactive rather than getting caught by surprise.

Why should we hire nxtConcepts for competitive analysis?

Because we don't just see the data; we see it through the lens of the travel and tourism industry. A generic analyst might tell you a competitor's website has high traffic. We can tell you why that traffic is converting into bookings for them and how you can build a strategy to intercept those high-value travelers. We combine expert analysis with decades of hands-on destination marketing experience, which means our recommendations are not just data-driven, they're practical, relevant, and proven to work in your world.
