If you liked this episode, we bet that you’ll love our blog content. blog.drift.com/#subscribe Subscribe to never miss a post & join the 20,000+ other pros committed to getting better every day. --- Last week Slack took out a full-page ad in the New York Times to "welcome" Microsoft to their market ahead of announcing Microsoft Teams. Most of the Twittersphere and press weren't fans of the ad, but we had a little bit of a different take: competition is good. So we talk about that -- plus we revisit a few lessons from Shoe Dog, a book by Nike founder Phil Knight. Here's a link to the Slack announcement if you missed it: http://bit.ly/2fCXSfx Here's a link to Shoe Dog on Amazon: amzn.to/2fmxeGB We appreciate all of the love and support for the podcast.
