3rd Place- 2012 AP Econ Video- Rolling in the Green (Monopolistic Competition)

The video discusses the dynamics of monopolistic competition using hair salons as an example. It explains how salons differentiate themselves to attract customers and compete for loyalty.

The video also highlights the ease of market entry and exit, and the ongoing rivalry among competitors.
