Paid competition - the proof
2 incumbents are live on Google Ads (1 of them "persistent" - advertising ≥1 year and still active, the profitability proxy), averaging 2.6 yr of ad tenure. 1 advertise on LinkedIn and 3 run retargeting pixels (multi-channel paid presence). Combined SEMrush ad budget is $4k/mo.
High, sustained, multi-channel spend = a proven, copyable acquisition channel. Spend is present but not deep - validate the channel before committing budget.
Incumbents to displace
The weakest profitable incumbents - already paying to acquire into soft-rated products. Copy their channel, beat their product.
