Impress your clients with SpyFu’s competitive intelligence
Impress clients by having your client’s competitor reports at your fingertips. Show them what budgets look like, which keywords their competitors are buying, and how often their competitors are testing.

Show clients what it takes to compete
Clients sometimes underestimate what it takes to compete in their industry. SpyFu’s competitive reports help agencies and freelancers build the business case for paid search, argue for increased spend, and justify the investment clients need to make if they’re going to succeed in their market. Paint a clear picture for clients by comparing them to their direct competitors and show them where they need to increase spend and where they can cut back.
