Abstract
For teaching purposes, this is the case-only version of the HBR case study.Ruffin CEO Bill Bronson is on a mission. Counterfeits of his company's adventure gear and clothing are on the rise, and Bronson is hell-bent on stopping them. He has hired top-notch investigators to track down the criminals, invested in technology that will help distinguish his products from look-alikes, and pushed on-line vendors to stop selling fakes. All of that has cost a lot of money, however, and the problem seems to be getting worse. How far should Bronson take his campaign?
