Competitive Landscape Report

Know the Playing Field. Position to Win.

You’re not just building a business—you’re entering a battlefield.
Markets are crowded. Customers are overwhelmed. And businesses that fail to understand their competitive terrain get outpaced, underpriced, or overlooked.

The Competitive Landscape Report is not just about knowing who your competitors are. It’s about identifying what makes you strategically different, and how to position that difference in a way that converts customers and repels imitation.

JKNC builds this with structured research and executive-level analysis. This isn’t a list of competitors—it’s a positioning intelligence document that shows:

  • What your competitors are doing—and missing

  • How they price, market, and serve customers

  • Which customer needs they’re fulfilling

  • Where their gaps are that you can target

  • What messaging, positioning, and channels they own

This report helps you break free from the noise and become the brand that occupies space in your customer’s mind—not just another player in the market.

Whether you’re a startup trying to enter a competitive industry, or an existing business seeking a sharper edge, this report changes how you move in your market.


A structured, strategy-ready report that includes:

  1. A curated list of your top 3–6 direct and indirect competitors

  2. Comparative analysis of value propositions, pricing, services, and channels

  3. Strengths and weaknesses of each competitor (SWOT snapshot)

  4. Visual positioning maps and differentiation summaries

  5. Opportunity gaps in market messaging, customer needs, and segment focus

  6. Positioning recommendations for your business

This is not a generic market scan. It’s a custom-built document crafted around your actual business, reviewed internally by JKNC’s peer network, and ready for use in funding decks, internal reviews, or marketing strategy.


Businesses that skip competitive research end up guessing. They copy industry trends, lower prices, or mimic competitors—without realizing the damage to their own identity.

This report helps your business:

  1. Understand your market beyond surface-level perception

  2. Build messaging that sets you apart—not just louder, but smarter

  3. Clarify what NOT to do by seeing what’s already saturated

  4. Refine your offer based on real market gaps

  5. Prepare for funding or partnerships with confidence

  6. Equip your sales and marketing teams with intel that closes deals

This isn’t just helpful—it’s mission-critical if you’re building something meant to last.

After delivery, your report can be used across departments and decision cycles:

  1. As a reference during sales, marketing, or product planning

  2. To inform pricing decisions or pivot points

  3. To train your team on competitors’ offers and how to respond

  4. For founder or executive alignment before entering new markets

  5. In investor decks to show you’ve done the strategic groundwork

Clients often build quarterly updates or use this report as the basis for a go-to-market (GTM) strategy.
