Converters- These little guys are converting your employees! Treat your employee like dirt and they will surely be converted away! What better way to crush you than to use what was once yours?
Infiltrators- Employed to infiltrate your business, causing havoc from stealing information to wrecking your business operation as they see fit. They come and go, and nobody knows.
Rerouters- Basically, these are the kind of guys that are hired to hang around your shop, converting your potential customers into theirs. They are also the kind of guys that will do light skirmishes on your business to take away your customers.
Saboteurs- They are here to cripple and wreck your business. Usually hired as a third party or created by your competitor as a private force that are out there to destroy your business in any way possible.
Leakers- Bribed by your competitor to leak out information to the public or for them. What? You think all those leaks were by accident???
Seducers- Charming guys and sexy girls hired to charm your employees and the top executives of the business. Seduction works… and very deadly.
Manipulators- a person who controls people through varies methods (i.e. speeches, actions, persuasions etc.). Maybe your actions are being manipulated for the manipulator’s profit.
Betrayers- created by the truly yours for all the hell you gave them. That or the person is being threatened by another to betray you. No hard feelings!
Haters- When you are loved, you are also hated by others. Extremists will definitely do anything in their power to stop your operation. That’s because you either have a product or service they hate. They are not your fan-boys and girls.
Eliminators- hit-men and assassins, what better way to get rid of the competition or be jailed… The fastest yet the riskiest way of trying to beat the competition.
Reapers- A 3rdparty that is in the shadow. Inciting competition between you and your known enemy. The 3rd party is out there to reap the reward when you and your enemy are worn out from the manipulated war.
Inciters- A person within your company that challenges your authority. A weak leadership will create inciters from within. Turning your own men and women against you because of a lack of leadership is the worst defeat.
Leechers- You think partnerships and mergers are dandy? One of them is getting the better stick and it may not be you. Your business might be swallowed up by your partner in the near future. There is no such thing as 2 kings in 1 throne.
Beware of these 13 enemies. Your business is always in peril. Know clearly your enemies. What you don’t know can hurt you.
