Competitive analysis report
You must study who is your competitor and then make a report on how to beat him. You must figure out a few things and note them on paper. Suppose you are marketing crocin tablets, and another medical representative is also marketing a similar product. Then first compare your product with his and find out some weaknesses about his product and note that down in your diary. Next time when you meet your doctor, study that comparison. Because if you are meeting a doctor who is already prescribing a similar product, he will ask you what makes your product different from that. Then you can tell him. This is called competitive analysis that you made before meeting with a doctor.
