Pantone: Color cannot be monopolized. However, Pantone earns money with this color. How could Pantone monopolize the color industry? The answer lies in a subtle difference: Pantone does not monopolize the color itself; it monopolizes its description. To reproduce a specific color, there must be criteria (classification and combination data) and a description. This is where Pantone’s unique approach comes in. Pantone developed the “Pantone Matching System (PMS, criteria)” and monopolized the description of how printing inks should be formulated to reproduce that color. The resolution was so systematic that it eventually became a global standard. As a result, if you cannot monopolize the essence, it is better to monopolize the additive factor. In this way, business, legally, is the act of strengthening monopoly power. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Most entrepreneurs do not charge their customers for the cost of self-emotional work. However, some business owners charge (or commercialize) their emotions and bill clients. There are various methods for commercializing appraisals, such as charging by the hour, charging by difficulty, and charging by the choice of conditions (options). This is because no culture in real life converts emotions into money.
