A slap in the face post, straightforward and marvelous, that's the way to go. If everybody would be doing like that then we would have a real idea of what competitive intelligence should be. Thanks for sharing, that rocks.

Thks Jeff. As much as I like “deep analysis and strategy planning”, sometimes it's good to be remembered what works.

This sounds interesting, but if I’m not mistaken the people listed on the right are not the people that viewed your competitions profile. So by example, if my competition is IBM, and I find an IBM profile, the people listed in the box are simply other people that someone interested in IBM looked at next. It’s not who looked at IBM. So I’m not sure how relevant those people in the box are in terms of people looking for IBM. Please explain if I’m off here. Thanks!!

Nope, you’re totally right and I had forgotten about that, wishing nobody would point it out.

On the other hand, that list is interesting to find “similar profiles”, which can help identify people with somewhat similar background if you are in hiring mode.

I might take a moment and edit this post.

Thanks for the headz up.
