It is important to focus on what truly makes our own products and services unique. What is original about us? In the world of increasing competition and alternatives, staying ahead and relevant requires a lot of effort.
To stay ahead we have to focus and provide more of what makes us unique and not get tempted to follow the bandwagon.
If you fail to realise what makes you unique, you will slip into the “rat race” as you become just another commodity.
