The biggest lesson I got, though, was the need to focus on one business, even if it means deciding between several different “really good” paths. I am going through this right now- I feel like I’ve several paths to go, each different, but I’m not sure I can really make headway in any one of them with the others occupying a fraction of my attention…
Justin, if you are reading this- What went through your mind when deciding whether to keep pursuing several paths or focus on just one? How much of it was a push away from the attention dilution and stress of having several different companies to deal with, versus a pull from one path that may have seemed most promising and/or personally appealing to you?

Great to hear Justin talk about how they went from no target to a very focused niche. Insightful interview!

Not sure.  I have a profitable bootstrapped company.  My cofounder and I both have strong technical expertise.  Makes no sense.

Thanks for the compliment about my incubator.

Sorry to hear you were turned down by others. Have you talked to a few of the people who were accepted to get feedback from them on your pitch?
