ECMOD 2008 visitors see competitor analysis as central to eCommerce success

PRLog (Press Release) – Oct 03, 2008 – When asked about the importance of understanding competitor pricing and merchandising strategies, website owners highlighted the high level of labour-intensive, manual work required to keep up with market trends.  TCM argue that it’s vital for online brands to focus more precisely on pricing levels and margin, and this can only be successfully achieved via a much greater degree of automation.
   
In launching Intoscape Competitor Intelligence Console (CIC) at ECMOD 2008, TCM is enabling users to implement a fully automated software solution which will actively search targeted competitors on the internet and gather valuable and timely information – all without the high levels of human intervention needed in the past.
Now available in a range of scalable packages, it allows users to monitor key competitor prices and inventory from just £3.00 per site, per day.  Further information is available at: http://www.intoscape.com/CompetitorMonitoring.html
“Despite the huge technology-based investments made by many website and online catalogue owners, when it comes to competitive insight, the vast majority are running just to stand still,” explained Steve Willock, Managing Director of TCM.  “As we enter more uncertain economic times, pricing will come under even more scrutiny.  It’s vital, therefore, that website operators raise their game and focus on automating the process if they want to remain competitive.”
