How to Analyse Your Competitors' Locations in Any Market
Where exactly are your competitors? This map-based analysis tells you where to expand and where to avoid.
Why Map Competitors
Knowing competitor density informs: where to open new locations, where to advertise, which neighbourhoods to skip, and where there's white space.
The Mapping Process
Step 1: Search your category citywide. Step 2: Export with addresses. Step 3: Plot on Google My Maps or similar. Step 4: Identify clusters and gaps.
What to Look For
Clusters: Areas with 10+ competitors → saturated, hard to enter.
Gaps: Areas with 0-2 competitors and good demographics → opportunity.
Underserved: Areas with low-rated competitors → quality entrant wins.
