In this episode of Strap On Your Boots, I explore why studying your competition can be valuable, but watching them too closely can actually hurt your startup. Drawing from my experience building products like Spinnr, I discuss how competitor research can lead to feature creep, distract from your original vision, and create unfair comparisons with companies that have far more resources. Instead of constantly reacting to what competitors are building, I’ve learned to focus more on customer behavior, repeated feedback, and the specific problem I’m trying to solve.
