If you don't know about the cool Mobile App my friends Patrick and Blake at SpotTrot have created you should and you will. Love how Blake and Patrick narrowed their focus, understood their very cool customers’ needs and began fixing stuff so bands can make money from STUFF. Since few bands make money from "record" sales anymore STUFF pays the bills and SpotTrot helps.
Very cool. Love it when friends with great ideas make good, and there are lessons for all startup entrepreneurs in SpotTrot's victory including:
* Narrow your focus.
* Find real pain points and solve the problem.
* Doing something COOL helps scale.
* Start ugly and improve as you go.
* Listen more than you talk.
* Innovate and then innovate again.
* MOBILE is changing everything.
