Good idea - similar to this reply - https://news.ycombinator.com/reply?id=15488168

Creating a GTM strategy and establishing your competitive edge are crucial. It may be interesting and work to improve even the original service. If the cloned company has little competition, perhaps they may not be thinking as much about the influence of competition.

Definitely, there appears to be market validation. How big is that market? Perhaps big enough for one more...

And congrats on your venture!

Completely agree, in cloning the company one would add his/her own interpretations and approaches to problems and features just by implementing as a engineer who is not at the cloned company. The twist is the differentiation that one intuitively feels exists or can be created that makes the pursuit of cloning that much more meaningful and perhaps effective. (just re-posting this comment as it applies to yours).

That is a great idea - going through the exercise of imagining if you were leading a company like the one you are cloning. Can you devise an effective GTM strategy that perhaps could scale more quickly (or convince yourself of that ;))?

OK. Not Z, but good anecdote. What are some other good ones?
