EP9: I called my competition

I called a competitor on the phone.

There's always this worry that someone with the same idea is going to launch at the same time, and they're going to steal all of our thunder.

Join Justin Jackson as he talks with Kiki Schirr about not getting discouraged when competitors pop up.

It's kind of like showing up to a party and you're wearing the same dress as someone else.

This week's Build & Launch project

This is also the mid-week check-up for the second product we're building live on the show: a fully functional web application. In this episode you'll hear from my partner in crime, Marty Dill: will we be able to launch this side-project (working only in our spare time) on Thursday?
