i'm not saying i'm not impressed. in fact, i think anyone who can start a business and be self-sustaining deserves praise. all i'm saying is that there is enough inefficiency in any large market to become a 7-figure business even if your product is no better than the competition. you can get customers through personal relationships who are doing you a favor and sometimes customers don't have the time to do a full evaluation of all your competitors. so, if you happen to reach them at the right time and solve their problem, even if you don't have the best solution, they still might choose your product. all i'm saying is if you want to create a truly disruptive company that can get to $100MM in sales, you do need to offer something 10x better. if you want to start a business in any given market and get to high six figures or seven figures, you just need to create something good enough and hustle. but you won't start displacing your competitors at scale if your product isn't significantly better.
