I’m scaling Getida Asia - the global leader in Amazon FBA Auditing and Reimbursements | Built and sold 2 eCommerce businesses to public companies and 1 to Private Equity | VC/Angel Investor | Advisor
There are two ways to approach your competition. I chose the second… It wasn’t like this 10 years ago, but today there's a tremendous amount of competition in the Amazon world: → Competing products → Competing consultants → Competing service providers And when faced with competition, companies choose to either: (1) Try to destroy them (2) Take inspiration and try to be the best It’s sad to see, but some people throw dirt at each other just to win some clients. But when you do this, it doesn’t just ‘discredit’ your competition, it also ‘discredits’ your own business and the industry overall. At Getida we opted for the second strategy. It’s why we: → Don’t shove our success in people’s faces → Are happy to be used as a backup provider for clients → Educate sellers for free about claims they may be unaware of → Focus on helping sellers instead of talking bad about other providers Lead with value and the whole industry gains. Lead with degradation and everybody loses. How do you approach your competition?

I love this mindset Eytan Wiener. It reminds me of a point from Simon Sinek in his book "Infinite Game" where he talks about a "worthy advisory" and how powerful and positive that can be.
Love this Eytan. Life is short. No goal, no objective, is ever worth your integrity. Your humanity. Doing the 'right thing' the 'right way' is a powerful, self-sustaining, business model. 👏

Eytan Wiener I completely agree with you, leading with value and focusing on self-improvement rather than disparaging competitors not only enhances your reputation but also contributes positively to the industry as a whole.

Eytan Wiener I really think you would enjoy (and get a ton of value out of) reading the book They Ask, You Answer by Marcus Sheridan. It’s all about doing the right thing for your customers and becoming the best educators in our niche —> which builds trust which leads to sales.

9moSo much abusers out there speaking bad to people they can't even match the footprints of. It's sad to see how common leg-pulling is in the services industry. Even on such professional platforms which is aimed to be an insightful platforms, a random guy from nowhere will be pulling leg of an industry professional just for engagements. Which again is hard, the world is not a better place to be in. We have to make its culture great for the further generations. Otherwise, opportunities don't come into the hands of people at war, it comes into the hands of people experimenting on inventions in laboratories.
