How to Gather Competitive Intelligence From Channel Partners and Integrations
Your integration and channel partners interact with your competitors daily. Here's how to build an intelligence feedback loop with them.

Building an intelligence feedback loop with partners requires three things: a structured format for sharing (quarterly partner intel calls with a consistent agenda), incentive alignment (partners share more when they benefit from your success), and reciprocity (share your market insights with them too).
