Episode notes
Start With An Email List
- Build an email list of 500–1,000 organic subscribers before launching a product.
- Focus on email subscribers from platforms like LinkedIn, Instagram, or YouTube because they convert far better than paid lists.
Talk To Customers Before Building
- Talk to your audience: run paid 45-minute consulting calls and increase price after demand.
- Record calls with AI transcription to mine patterns and decide what product to build.
Use Surveys Plus Research Calls
- Run a concise 10–20 question survey with one optional open-ended question and a $100 gift-card incentive.
- Follow up by booking 15-minute research calls with insightful respondents to deepen findings.
