How can one effectively measure the resources and connections nee

One can effectively measure the resources and connections needed to pass entry barriers by first identifying the barriers. This involves understanding the factors that make an industry attainable or unattainable to new entrants. Next, analyze the size of these barriers by measuring the resources and connections needed. This will give you better control and ability to pass the entry barriers. It's also important to determine the significance of these barriers by comparing the levels of resources, skills, technology, and other factors against those required to pass the entry barriers. Lastly, identify the steps needed for incumbents to raise entry barriers.
