Founder & CEO of Us...ย โ€ขย 4m

Six months were spent building a product that no one really needed. It was exciting at first โ€” the vision felt strong. But the common mistake was made: the idea was never validated. No real feedback. No user conversations. Just assumptions. Over time, the approach changed: โœ… A simple landing page was created โœ… Short surveys were shared โœ… Real users were invited to share their thoughts Validation isn't about being perfect. It's about listening before building. Before investing time or money into any idea, one step can make all the difference: ๐Ÿ’ฌ Speak to 10 potential users this week. Validation is free. Regret isn't. #StartupLessons #UXDStartupIdeas #FounderJourney #BuildWhatMatters #LeanStartup

Founders today donโ€™t even talk to their early users. Fireflies once charged $100/month for an โ€œAIโ€ that was just two guys taking notes on Zoom. They became the product first, then automated. Validation before automation. Always.
