Product Rants: Competition @ TPG.ee

Welcome back to Product Rants, where Anna-Liisa and Maria grab their coffee (plus vastlakuklid) and vent about the chaos, contradictions, and curveballs of product management. In this episode, we're flipping the script on that ever-present topic that keeps product teams changing plans: Competition.

You know the conventional wisdom: track your competitors' every move, treat them like enemies, and rush to match their features before they "steal" your customers. But what if we've been getting it all wrong? Join us as we challenge the traditional competitive mindset and explore the radical idea that maybe, just maybe, collaboration could be more powerful than combat.

In this 3rd episode of Product Rants we rant about the exhausting "us versus them" mentality, question whether the zero-sum game is actually serving anyone, and share some refreshing perspectives on how competitors might actually become allies in disguise. From co-creation opportunities to market expansion partnerships, we're diving into why seeing competition exclusively as warfare might be the most outdated concept in product management.

So, refill your cup and hit play and get ready to the idea that today's enemy might just be tomorrow's partner!

P.S. Be ready for more of a very blooper-ish episode and less of a rant-y one 🤭
