Beware of Disdain for the Competition


A disdain for the competition is problematic. Unless you're absolutely crushing all your growth goals, or...


...have a monopoly in your category (unlikely)

it does not serve you to speak (or even think)

about the competition without respect.


Even if you have monopoly-esque growth,

it's not a good look.


It doesn't matter:

• How great your product is

• How innovative your vision is

• How great a team you've built

• How much your clients love you


🔴 Tables can turn very quickly.

Your competition isn't the problem:

your underestimating them is.
