Fierce competition!

Of course, you see competition everywhere.

The mom-and-pop bakery next door competes with the bakery store on the next street. But that’s not the competition we’re looking for.

And, no. We’re not talking about things like web development or the online writing business, either. Sure, there’s a plethora of websites and blog posts competing for the attention of potential readers. But that supply meets an equally large group of discerning customers.
