Is there merit to what he's saying? What exactly is the value that you'll be providing over the extant competitors? If you've chosen a poor market, why not find a new one?
If on the other hand his criticism is not really constructive, he's not suggesting anything new, and his spark is gone, then the situation is untenable. My experience has been that tolerating "co-founders," "partners," or "early employees" who lack passion for the product just doesn't end well. Get rid of him.
- swdesignguy 19y agoThanks for the advice everybody. I thought I'd add that while the competing product is very polished, and run by an excellent company, they're not exactly the same. It's sort of like Mint.com and Quicken. They both help you do the same thing but they approach it completely differently. Our product is going to do A, B, and C but the focus is on item A. Our competition also does A, B, and C but they put all of the focus on B.
