# Strategies: Research Sources

Guides selecting and organizing information sources for marketing research: content ideation, competitor monitoring, and industry tracking. Use this skill when planning where to gather signals for content, competitive intelligence, or market trends.

**When invoking**: On **first use**, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On **subsequent use** or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

## Use Cases

|----------|---------|
| **Content ideation** | Topic ideas, trends, gaps for blog, newsletter, social |
| **Competitor monitoring** | Product updates, positioning, pricing, reviews |
| **Industry tracking** | Market shifts, funding, layoffs, regulatory changes |

## Source Categories

| Category | Format | Use |
|----------|--------|-----|
| **News** | Real-time, daily | Breaking news, announcements |
| **Blogs** | Company, analyst | Deep dives, product updates |
| **Newsletters** | Curated, weekly/daily | Trends, summaries; low effort |
| **Events** | Conferences, webinars | Industry pulse, networking |
| **Data** | Layoffs, market cap, funding | Quantitative signals |
| **Community** | Forums, Q&A | Real questions, pain points |
| **Archives** | Wayback, Internet Archive | Historical content, competitor changes |

**Selection criteria**: Authority, freshness, coverage, language/locale. Prefer 10–15 high-quality sources over 50+ low-signal ones.
