34–64 Vertical integration is often closely associated with vertical expansion which, in economics, is the growth of a business enterprise through the acquisition of companies that produce the intermediate goods needed by the business or help market and distribute its product. Such expansion is desired because it secures the supplies needed by the firm to produce its product and the market needed to sell the product. Such expansion can become undesirable when its actions become anti-competitive and impede free competition in an open marketplace. The result is a more efficient business with lower costs and more profits.

The chief sales officer (CSO) of a company is responsible for mediating between factors of growth and expense. The CSO is tasked with the role of motivating the salespeople, creating enjoyable experiences for the customer through efficient business procedures, and capitalising on new growth opportunities.

Lachmann shows that Brenner never identifies a mechanism that results in capitalism as opposed to some other post-feudal social system. Fernand Braudel and Immanuel Wallerstein, the authors of the world-system analysis, in turn, does not explain why the Italian city-states, which dominated European trade did not realize the full potential of capitalist development, and instead stagnated and then lost economic leadership to the Netherlands and Britain. Lachmann consistently traces elite and class conflicts to explain the outcomes in each of his cases. He shows how the fights against the French and Burgundian kings, the German emperors and the Roman Papacy, combined with geopolitical stalemate to provide the conditions for the autonomy of the Italian cities in the Renaissance, and then at the local level conflict elites launched the development of urban trade and efficient business techniques by defining the institutional specificity of mature institutions and the limits of urban capitalism.
