How to stay competitive in a market this big? 

The answer: Datasets. 

Whether you are a global or local retailer, wholesaler, or manufacturer, datasets are the key to tracking market information and turning it into a competitive advantage. 

Publicly available sources — from global marketplaces to national retail chains — can be used to build datasets that include: 

• SKUs and product names
• Technical specifications
• Stock availability and levels
• Pricing data (retail & wholesale)
• Customer ratings and reviews
• Market share insights
• Seasonal demand patterns 

How Electronics businesses can use datasets 

1. Track prices 

Monitor competitor pricing to adjust your own strategy. 

Example: A major retailer tracks the prices of 50,000 SKUs across Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart weekly to remain competitive without undercutting unnecessarily. 

2. Measure product popularity by region 

Understand which products sell best in specific markets. 

Example: Data shows that high-end gaming laptops dominate in North America, while budget-friendly models outsell them in Southeast Asia. 

3. Follow seasonal trends 

Spot recurring sales cycles to optimize promotions and inventory. 

Example: Smart TV sales spike in Q4 ahead of holiday seasons in both Europe and the U.S. 

4. Track brand market share 

Identify which brands are gaining or losing ground. 

Example: Tracking smartphone market share reveals that a mid-tier brand has gained 3% in a specific region, signaling a growing threat. 

5. Analyze customer reviews for product improvements 

Extract insights from ratings and reviews to inform product design. 

Example: Sentiment analysis shows repeated mentions of battery overheating in a popular tablet, prompting a design update. 

6. Monitor market dynamics 

Track changes in pricing, product availability, and demand over time to anticipate shifts. 

Example: Spotting a sudden drop in availability of a certain microchip alerts manufacturers to potential supply chain issues.

7. Track innovations and new product launches 

Stay ahead of technology trends. 

Example: Dataset analysis flags a rise in sales of AI-enabled home assistants, prompting a retailer to expand its smart home section.
