iPhone vs. Android, Apple vs. Microsoft, Ford vs. Chevy, Coke vs. Pepsi, Milwaukee vs DeWalt. These are common industry battles fought to win the minds, dollars, and loyalties of consumers. The power tool and outdoor power equipment industries uniquely differentiate their products to gain consumers’ attention. Still, brand loyalty in the power tool industry is […]
