Building products is hard.
Is there a market for my product? Do customers care about this problem – at scale – that is worth creating a business around? Once we’ve identified a need, how do we mobilize our team and orient our business to deliver on the opportunity? How do we know when to double down or just go with an MVP? Once we have customers, how does one prioritize what to work on? How do we organize and optimize the product management function?
