Build structural competitive advantages that last — network effects, switching costs, brand, scale advantages, and knowledge moats. A practical framework for every business size.
About the book
If a competitor can copy everything you do in six months, you don't have a business — you have a head start. Blue Apron proved this: a great idea, a massive customer base, and a billion-dollar valuation meant nothing when competitors replicated the entire operation.
This book teaches you to build what competitors can't copy. You'll learn the five moat types (network effects, switching costs, brand, scale/cost advantages, and knowledge/data/regulatory moats), how each works at every scale from solo operators to Fortune 500, and specific playbooks for building each one.
Then you'll learn why single moats erode but stacked moats compound, how to design a multi-moat strategy, and how to maintain your advantages through annual audits and disruption scanning.
