It made us make the product 10 times better.” - Joey “In business, you don't have an option. You have to be competitive in business. Otherwise, you’ll lose. If you lose then you haven't got the business.” - Joey “Understand your industry's competitive landscape—where do you fit in and how do all your competitors relate to one another. Don't get too obsessed with what your competitors are doing, that's a big one.” - Joey “What have I just done? I’ve taken too many risks there. I could easily have slipped, fallen all the way down--There were sheep bones beside me from where sheep had fallen and there were just bones left!” - Jamie “It made us innovate in a way that we weren't thinking of innovating at the time. You can only see that now, I suppose. We couldn't see it back then.” - Jamie “[Celebrities] all looked at each other in goals. I need to do something like that.” - Jamie   Useful Links Main Platforms Viddyoze Website Viddyoze App Films By Viddyoze The Viddyoze Story | How We Built An 8-Figure Bootstrapped Software Enterprise Viddyoze Presents 'Fade To Black' | From Broke To $30 Million | Joey's Story Social Media Viddyoze Facebook Viddyoze Instagram Joey Xoto Instagram Viddyoze LinkedIn Joey Xoto LinkedIn Jamie Garside LinkedIn David Chamberlain LinkedIn
