Having him be a raiser instead of a caller.
I’d prefer the raiser. At least you know you are going to get raised and can bet accordingly (typically an all-in bet to take away any play behind you). With a calling station you don’t know what type of action is going to take place behind you, except that it very likely won’t be a fold, which in turn makes it easier for me to fold with “marginal” (definitions will vary) hands.
