Could you please let me know if the following excerpt of a sentence is grammatically correct (specifically the preposition after "effort"):
"Should there be anything that you feel we are missing, your insight would be invaluable to our effort in improving our products(…)"
An explanation on why it is/isn't correct would also be highly appreciated.
Prepositions are tough. 🙁

The preposition 'in' is perfectly fine in the way you have used it. However the sentence as a whole, though grammatically correct, reads a little clumsily. My own way of saying much the same thing would be as below. Note especially that I have changed 'insight' to 'feedback, the more usual word for customer comments. 'Insight' is used more as regards professional opinions.
'If you have any comments you wish to make on our products or service, your feedback would be invaluable to our continuing efforts to improve'.
