The Importance of Setting Boundaries with Customers
In the podcast, the host emphasizes the significance of setting boundaries with customers, especially for solo entrepreneurs like himself. He challenges the concept of customer obsession promoted by Jeff Bezos and Amazon, advocating for a more selective and principled approach. By saying no to certain customer requests and focusing on a specific, defined offering, entrepreneurs can establish respect, create clear expectations, and avoid diluting their product or service to cater to every customer demand.
