Companies that try to avoid competing with themselves often fail quickly and spectacularly (after this approach appearing to work well for an extended time).
- djrogers 10y agoApple historically hasn't had a problem competing with itself - iPod mini - iPod nano - iPhone, each of these completely destroyed an existing product or product line.
- squarefoot 10y agoApple probably is an exception rather than a rule here; their products are so overpriced that any new product success easily makes up for previous products losses. It might be a bit different for "normal" companies though.
