If my sister was planning on opening a bookstore across the street from Barnes and Noble for example, I would advise her to make sure she had the right strategy and was ready to compete against a company with infinitely more money and power. Having said that, I don't see what your analogy has to do with the article. Matthew wasn't talking about his sister's business, he was talking about his own business.
