Keeping up with industry noise can feel endless—market monitoring done right brings clarity. In this episode, Brandon Giella and Parker Smith introduce Snapmarket’s Market Monitoring, a workflow that gathers, filters, and summarizes high-quality news and trends so you can guide your audience with authority. They unpack the pitfalls of manual research, explain how Snapmarket’s tool personalizes insights to your brand voice, and share how consistent market curation supports sharper, more credible content.

Key Highlights

• Real-world hurdles of staying informed as a marketer—why traditional research drains time and focus.
• How Snapmarket’s Market Monitoring automates news and trend curation, drawing on sources like WSJ, HBR, Bain, and McKinsey.
• Using Perplexity AI to customize weekly (or on-demand) reports based on your actual questions and priorities.
• Monitoring industry mentions, competitors, upcoming regulations, sentiment, tech innovations, pricing, investment, and more.
• Connecting curated insight directly to content workflows: podcasts, messaging projects, newsletters, and sales collateral—so your subject matter expertise always feels current.
• The practical value: less time tab-surfing, more time thinking and publishing.
