Overview
Retail and trading is the business of buying and selling goods and services, moving them from manufacturers to consumers or other businesses. Data harvesting is a huge boost for these businesses: data extracted from the web shows you what your competition is doing, which products sell well, and how to improve your own sales strategies.
- Competitive intelligence: see which strategies your competitors use and adapt or improve on them.
- Product insights: learn which products are selling well and where there is room for growth.
- Sales strategy: identify the areas where you could be doing better.
Web scraping, using software to extract data from websites, is one of the most popular data harvesting techniques for competitive intelligence and market research.
