Apart from new competitors, the competitive assaults come from other outlets.
Between incumbent rivals focused on obtaining strategic advantages is some of the most fierce competition.
As per Boston Consulting Group writers George Stalk, Jr., and Rob Lachenauer in their book Hardball, winners in business play hard and do not apologize for it: Are you playing to play or playing to win?
Their five tactics are: crushing rival benefit sanctuaries, plagiarizing with pride, deceiving competition, unleashing huge and disproportionate power and rising competitors' costs.
