How to deal with people copying you | Dealing with copycats in business

Aaaaah the most frustrating thing for me is probably when other people copy me - *NOT talking about photography or editing style here, talking about business* - Dealing with people copying you is really hard and it can eat you up on the inside. There are a few options for what you can do to handle the situation that cover direct confrontations, avoidance and my personal favourite - levelling up.

Over the past 12 months I've seen copying first hand and I've also spoken to a lot of you who have particular people copying random things you do. Some are having their entire business copied - right down to their logo (get it trademarked!).

I've popped a blog post together with the main points covered that you can find here: https://www.thattogspot.com/how-to-de...
