Start with a question
Decide what you are trying to learn: acquisition angle, lead capture, webinar structure, checkout flow, follow-up, or another specific part of the journey.
Map acquisition
Identify observable channels and entry pages. Search results and public ads can show how the competitor frames the problem before a visitor reaches the funnel.
Analyze the message sequence
Compare the promise at the first touchpoint with the landing page and later offer. Look for continuity, new information, proof, and changes in commitment.
Analyze friction and proof
Note what information is requested and when, plus the types of evidence and objections addressed. Do not reuse another company’s testimonials or proprietary proof.
Create a test backlog
Prioritize observations that can become original tests in your funnel. The useful output is a set of hypotheses, not a clone.
