Quotes From This Episode
Part of the reason to develop the prototype is to figure out the pathway to take. Part of this conversation should be, be very open to asking good questions of yourself, the rest of your team, et cetera, so you could get to the point. That’s why it always starts with why.
Scott Zeitzer
Get something launched, get feedback, refine your intentions for phase two, phase three off of very meaningful data and insights. You’re never gonna get everything right upfront.
Justin Bantuelle
It’s making sure that you’re working with the right partner to help solicit the correct considerations and build to the right level of maturity in that first pass. Just be wary of what you don’t know and make sure you talk to somebody who’s been there done that to help get you the right answers to your questions and the right plan for what you need today, and what you need tomorrow, and what you need next month and next year.
