How it works

4 steps to winning against the competition

Step 1

Choose your competitors

NiceJob surfaces the top-ranked businesses in your industry — pick up-to-three you compete with most, and it starts tracking their reviews right away.

Step 2

See the full picture side by side

Your review volume, star rating, and recency are displayed alongside your competitors — so you can see at a glance where you're winning and where you're not.

Step 3

Spot the gaps before they cost you

Is a competitor on a hot streak of fresh reviews? Pulling ahead on star rating? NiceJob surfaces these shifts as they happen — not after you've already lost the ranking.

Step 4

Act on the data

Use the intel to adjust your review campaign cadence, identify service areas to improve, and make smarter marketing decisions — all backed by real market data, not guesswork.

Best investment a small biz can make! Screw the guys who say they will run your Google profile, NiceJob will make sure you get as many reviews as possible and you end up outperforming competition.

Frequently asked questions

Googling gives you a snapshot. NiceJob tracks changes over time — showing you review velocity, rating trends, and recency shifts — so you can see if a competitor is gaining ground before it affects your rankings. It also runs continuously in the background so you never have to remember to check. 

Use it as a direct signal to act. If a competitor has more recent reviews, increase your request frequency. If they have a higher star rating, dig into your customer feedback to understand where service quality could improve. The data tells you where to focus — NiceJob's other features help you close the gap. 

NiceJob monitors Google reviews, which carry the most weight for local search rankings. Competitive Intel tracks competitors' Google review volume, star ratings, and recency — the signals that matter most for map pack position. 

You define who your competitors are and NiceJob monitors them automatically. Reach out to the NiceJob team for details on the number of competitors supported on your specific plan. 

Competitive Intel is available on NiceJob Pro, alongside the full Insights suite — including campaign analytics, the Team Leaderboard, and NPS Surveys.
