(remember, focused on PRE product-market fit)
1. Focus on the Value Proposition
Our three weeks of idiocy
Really think about what you need to test
2. Qualitative not Quantitative
Surveys are best for objective data
Our beta Aha! moment
3. Focus Groups are Evil
4. Own customer development AND the UX
Our short-lived experiment
5. Let some things suck
Focus on learning
6. Beware the siren call of investors
