Interview with Conrad Egusa and Eddie Arrieta founders of Publicize.co

What has been your biggest challenge so far as a startup owner?
I think the biggest challenge is always finding and cultivating the right team.
 
In the coming year, what would you like to achieve with your business?
In the upcoming year we would like to be 2-3X as large in terms of revenue and company size.
What has been your most valuable lesson so far since starting your business?
My most valuable lesson has been that to succeed and build a great business, one needs to create 10X as much value as incumbent companies in the market.
If you could give one piece of advice to someone thinking about starting a business, what would it be?
My one piece of advice would be that a company needs to have product-market fit to success, but it also has to have founder-product fit. What I mean by this, is that a founder needs to be super passionate about the problem, and he or she needs to have the right skill-set for everything to come together.
