Starting late is my preference. Planning more, seeing which direction others go, etc.
If you start early, haring off in some direction, and everyone else chooses a different path, you may have to backtrack to catch up to them.


Just yesterday, I had this sort of thing in mind again. I saw some Subaru Outbacks on the road and thought again about how popular they are and how unpopular the AMC Eagle was when it was released. AMC started too early, the market wasn't ready for an AWD sedan/hatchback thingy yet. While Subaru was able to see the AMC Eagle as a case study and learn from its failure.

All too often we see a company having some idea for a product and saying "we need to be first to market" -- that tactic fails more often than it succeeds. The product is often poorly designed/implemented and obviously rushed. Whereas the competitors will see how the market reacts and can make a wiser, more reasoned plan.
