The Ultimate Business Competition Guide : Reverse Engineer The Competition And Make 'em Eat Your Dust!

(excerpt)
If you gain a thorough understanding of the dynamics of competition in your  industry, you can easily develop a custom-fit, yet highly effective business strategy by answering one simple question: Are there any obstacles stopping you from doing things, other companies cannot!
If you answered “yes” to this question, you are going to find strategizing to be a critical aspect of your business model. Any profits made will be directly related to the level of skill you display in defensive strategy, as well as in your management techniques. Always be prepared to engage in the identification, understanding, anticipation, and influence!
