The best way is to ask your existing customers - they will more than happy to tell you how to improve and if you are friendly at all, they will tell you what your competition does differently that they like.\n\nCheck out the competition - it will give you ideas.

CHALLENGES:  different attitudes, tolerance, desire for makeup; different business culture; lack of name recognition; perhaps lack of category recognition; perhaps intolerance of foreign business owners (depending on country); reliability of supply network, retail outlets, promotional media, etc.\nPROSPECTS: potentially less competition, at least initially; potentially cheaper sources of production, distribution; potentially opportunity to grow market AND market share.

No competition = no motivation to change things.\n\n\nTNA isn't quite there yet to compete with the WWE. When they are, maybe then the WWE will become better.\n\nHow pathetic is it that the WWE pretends that the competition is between Raw, Smackdown & ECW when they are all under the WWE umbrella.

nope cause the competitors also will use IT but not doing so spells disaster\n\nthe problem is deciding HOW MUCH to invest and where the company that gets the formula correct will be ahead in five years ( if the rest of the business model is correct )

in-house competitions are always good. my team runs them once a week, with the winner having an all expense paid for lunch.\n\nalternatively i know other ppl tend to put up small prizes for grabs such as a free trip to the hair dressers etc.

It is easier to answer what problem wouldn't exist!  But a few things to think about are:\n- redundancies\n- corporate culture clash\n- new processes\n- company stablility\n- new branding\n- new marketing collateral\n- new premises\n- change management\n- investor relations (if public company)

Generally speaking, the prize money in men's tournaments tends to be better.  I don't think it's about equlity so much as it's about cash.

Before you go up to do your routine try and realize a few different things...first most of your competitors have similar nervousness it can be a disconcerting feeling to go up and perform against people and for people that you are not used to - just try and do the best you can. Secondly realize that you do have a good grasp of your technique, otherwise you wouldnt be up there in a tournament setting. Try and be confident that you have mastered your abilities as best as you were able in preparation for the contest. Again you can only perform as well as you can perform and you just have to be at peace with what the results will bring.

Non competes are usually pretty worthless.  They really don't stand up in court anyway.  So just do what you want and take a chance.  I don't think they will sue you anyway.  You also hold the race card and can say that you were discriminated against if they give you any trouble.  That always works in this country.

From the choices, it looks like A.  Decrease.\n\nWith lower margins (see monopoly versus perfect competition), the profits slim down over time and there's less room for individual growth even with the total size of the industry increasing.

There is no hard and fast rule, it varies tremendously by product and sector. A good starting point is to check out your competition, you don't want to discover that you have priced your goods way above your nearest competitor.

The problem is that battles are no longer restricted to battlefields.\nIt gets problematic when the enemy hides amongst the population.

I work in fraud detection, the advantage is obviously convenience. the disadvantage is possible identity theft. There are numerous devices that can be attached to the machine and copy your information. Your information could be sent to another country in a matter of minutes. Make sure you use a machine that is serviced often and watched closely. Even the most cautious person can have their information compromised.

I'm anti competition ... If I see cometition, smell competition, or feel competition, I RUN in the other direction.\n\nI had this boyfriend who liked to introduce other women into the relationships for competitions sake ... I ran ... it saved my heart! He's still my friend, but thank God I didn't give him my heart.\n\nI meet this guy rollerblading, and I was having a blast trying to limbo on blades ... he joined me and then said, "This is a great way to get compeitive for skiing", I ran...\n\nI co-worker gal was competitive, and we had a "Team Building Day" at the museaum ... we were given a scavenger hunt list ... she took her team and they went to town to get all the items on the list ... my team & I wern't competitive, and we found a Curator who gave us a private tour of the Egyptian section <which wasn't on the hunt>... We lost bad, but I had a better time.
