Instead of seeing competitor businesses as rivals, view them as a great opportunity to get to know like-minded people and help each other out.

Good point Duncan - not much you can do if a client decides to move of his own free will.

Good advice, Bridie.

While it's totally unethical to steal clients in a business-sharing relationship, sometimes the client will decide they like the new one better & switch on their own account. This is wisdom my Dad repeated every summer as he signed out to another physician while on vacation. It only actually happened a couple/three times out of the 11 years I worked for him pre-retirement.
