Your Competition & Your Trade Secrets

I could not agree more with small busi­ness own­er, Mar­cus Sheri­dan, on his lat­est blog post, ​“Social Media, Trade Secrets, and Why You Should’t Give a Rip about the Com­pe­ti­tion.” Mar­cus owns a pool com­pa­ny in North­ern Vir­ginia. He sells pools! That’s it! He also blogs more than any ser­vice com­pa­ny own­er I know and shares his wis­dom. It is true, his blogs are pub­lic and open for all his com­peti­tors to view. All of his best kept secrets are now on the pub­lic domain for all to see. Is he los­ing jobs to his com­peti­tors and shoot­ing him­self in the foot? Just the oppo­site. Take the time to read his blog and think about how you can be the expert in your con­tract­ing busi­ness. Let me know your thoughts after read­ing the blog by post­ing them below or shoot­ing me an email.
