    Teaching ‘em How to Fish: How to train your whole company on Competitive Intelligence techniques

    In this episode of Into the Fray, host Erik Mansur, VP of Product Marketing at Crayon is joined by Jennifer Roberts, Director of Market Strategy at ServiceTitan.
    This series has focused a lot on getting buy-in from your key stakeholders, how to build credibility as the primary driver of your CI efforts, and creating an ongoing conversation between you and your audience about this process in order to help build a better program.
    There hasn't been a conversation about training those stakeholders, turning them into little curators or providers of competitive intelligence. What we HAVE heard from other guests is that making other team members feel like participants in the process is immensely valuable, and this episode is all about how you can go off and do just that.

    Today’s guest doesn’t do product marketing for a living. He’s not an expert in win/loss analysis, and competitive intelligence isn’t something that he lists as a skill on his LinkedIn profile.
    Ryan's literally an authority on all things content marketing, and in this episode he discusses the other side of the competitive intelligence transaction - how he receives and internalizes great insights about rival solutions, and the ways that he uses that data to his advantage.
