Your Guide to Customer Discovery
Gain an appreciation for gathering insights before jumping into decision mode
It’s only by finding and solving real, painful, human problems to solve that products and companies are able to create true value for their customers. This can be a hard sell for startups, because it doesn’t pay to spend time chasing problems up front. Most investors want products and solutions, not problems and insights.
On the other hand established, successful companies often get away from customer discovery because they know what works. They’d rather become more efficient (better at creating the solution) than spend time finding new problems to solve or finding ways to solve them better.
