Sector-specific benchmark

Understand your ecosystem to sharpen your positioning

Sector benchmarking helps you evaluate your content strategy against competitors. By analysing topics, formats, tone, and publication rhythm, we identify strengths, blind spots, and editorial levers to activate.

Our approach reveals underlying trends, saturated themes, and untapped opportunities—providing reliable, comparable, and actionable insights to guide your strategic choices.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Compare your speaking engagements to market standards. Our sector-specific benchmarks help you identify best practices among stakeholders in your sector.

Let’s discuss your goals

A sector-specific benchmark analyses the content strategy of players comparable to yours. The Editorialist studies editorial lines, formats, channels, tones, and angles used by your competitors or peers to position your brand and identify improvement levers. The goal: to inform your decisions with concrete references from your own sector.

The sector-specific benchmark helps you break out of your echo chamber and ground your editorial choices in the real competitive landscape. It reveals best practices, untapped opportunities, redundancies or weak angles. It’s a useful steering tool to refine your editorial line, structure a content plan, or rethink your high-stakes formats and channels (website, social media, newsletters, etc.).

We analyse the formats used (op-eds, videos, white papers, etc.), publishing frequency, editorial themes, platform structure (websites, newsletters, LinkedIn, etc.), observable performance, and consistency with target audiences. This analysis relies on a customised evaluation grid, adapted to your industry and communication objectives.

We cover sectors with high editorial complexity: finance, energy, healthcare, industry, consulting, tech, food, real estate, insurance, and more. Each benchmark is based on active monitoring and deep knowledge of sector-specific codes. It can focus on a sector, a business segment, or a panel of players defined with you based on your positioning and challenges.

The insights from the benchmark help you adjust your editorial strategy, rethink formats, strengthen your differentiation, or support a redesign (website, platform, employer brand, etc.). They can also back internal decision-making or guide repositioning. We deliver a clear, illustrated, actionable summary ready to integrate into your editorial roadmap.
