With the SLA conference coming up, wouldn’t you like to learn how to learn as much as possible from it?  Even if you can’t attend?  In this one hour webinar learn how by using leading edge concepts and techniques from competitive intelligence you can gather as much information during an event as you could in a year. Trade show intelligence collection is an opportunity to gather the most competitive information in the shortest amount of time for the least amount of money. By planning systematically and ethically, a solo intelligence gatherer or a team can leverage their information gathering potential in order to provide decision-makers actionable intelligence about their competitive environment. Including, market trends, new technologies, market opportunities, competitor plans and products and much more.
