Regarding competitions, you would recommend to really stick out, spend no time. Looking at your competition, one of the ways i think i've stood out. My whole career is by not paying attention to competition, but also only paying attention to the customer i'm seeing what they want sooner, which makes me unique. I think a lot of people do too much analysis on the competition which makes them spend all their time on defense and subconsciously.
They become more similar to their competition without even realizing it, because they're spending so much time listening to it.
Great advice! Always need this reminder.
exactly what i needed today
agree and disagree. Blockbuster went out of business because of not knowing about the competition, a.k.a Netflix, Redbox etc
True story : I got let go from home depot for an integrity issue . All because I kept winning competitions selling cc and pushing gift cards to win work shirts and a ten dollar gc for Walmart .. that I never got btw . They seriously thought I was up to something .. but I honestly won and it wasnt cause I wanted to be number one I just didn’t wana pay twenty five bucks for work shirts ! I didn’t care about badges or anything else but for my higher ups to notice me and hopefully get a promotion to pro desk eventually . I had been there for three yrs and was only late once and never called out sick and had money in stocks and I was the first employee ever to get certified within my first three months . We also had these annual competitions where all the stores in our district would meet up at a store and do all these different contest and I won two yrs in a row . There was no way u could cheat . I really think they let me go cause I was about to go on maternity leave in a month ! Anyways got a lawyer and I sued and put all my money I won in the lawsuit in stocks and I’m constantly in that home depot buying things for my house upgrades and projects and also started my own flooring business and since I have stocks in home depot I use them a lot and I make sure to remind employees when they comment how if they were me they would shop at Lowe’s after the way they fired me . I also remind them I don’t really work other than my spread sheets and checking my stocks and now investing in nft and oh yeah my Bitcoin lol that was the perfect time for me to get fired !! God works in mysterious ways !
