Cody Candee, founder of Bounce, says first-time founders obsess over product while repeat founders focus on distribution. He advises prioritizing SEO from day one to drive supply and accelerate marketplace growth.

If you could go right back to before you started Bounce, you know, what would you tell yourself about marketplaces?
Focusing on distribution from the start, which in this case is SEO, and just nailing that as hard as we can. Like, and then, yeah, understanding how that helps drive supply. And I think getting started with that could have accelerated us even more in the beginning. So it's, there's a a tweet or a quote from a famous entrepreneur. I forgot which one. It's, first-time founders obsess over product, second-time founders obsess over distribution.
