Who Do You Compare Yourself To?

I know I’m on blog hiatus, but couldn’t resist this great little post from Seth Godin entitled “”we don’t compare ourselves to other airport restaurants“  Not much to say about it, as the post speaks for itself.  But I think the beauty of it is the last line “who or what are  you comparing yourself to?”  In our fast paced world where commodization is king and business models are being turned upside down, this is an incredibly provocative question to ask yourself.  Here at the Vann Group, we established a BHAG to be “the Bain Capital of the small business world” so we are indirectly comparing and measuring ourselves against Bain – a lofty model considering what they have accomplished.

So, let me know who/what you are comparing yourself to and why?
