Episode notes
Ship What You Can Build Now
- Build the product you know how to make instead of waiting for perfect validation.
- Improve and market it over time until your audience understands its value.
Audience Feedback Has Limits
- Audiences often can't tell you what product to build because they only see existing formats.
- Asking them usually yields requests for more free content, not a clear product brief.
Commit And Convince
- Pick a product and commit; consistent effort makes it work more than pre-launch analysis.
- Convince your audience it's a value add and keep telling them about it.
