How do you create barriers to entry?
Sound familiar? The only way to stop this is to have your barriers to entry set-up. What do you have in place that stops a competitor being able to compete with you on a level playing field... How are you protecting your product/business/idea?
Some things that I use include technical sophistication (most people cannot create what I do, certainly not a quickly as I can and certainly not by the time they see my product launch. I also ensure that my IP is protected with trademarks where appropriate and I have harsh penalties in all of my commercial agreements with other agencies I deal with prior to launching my product.
For many of you, most of this isn't applicable, so it got me curious about what you use as your barriers to entry?
