Hi PH I would like to share experiences on how to get early feedback and validation when launching a new product Let's start with mine... 1. In January I created a landing page about my new product with the goal of collecting early adopters e-mails 2. I searched on LinkedIn for professionals that can benefit from my new product. In my case I looked for "conversational designers" and I obtained a list of 6 hundreds people approx. 3. I created a sequence (thanks to an automation tool) to engage with those people on LinkedIn: view profile, follow, send an invite, endorse skills and a couple of follow-up messages to request if they were interested to get early access to the new product. 4. Once they land on the landing page, I started engaging with them directly on the landing page through a widget and a conversational application that I built with my brand new no-code design studio in a few minutes. In this way I obtained the first 100 early adopters. This helped me a lot to gather feedback and improve the product before the launch scheduled on Thursday, Feb 9th. What about your experience to look for early adopters?

Procrastination is HUGE and is one of the many demons that prevents you from getting stuff done. What are some ways that have personally helped you overcome this rather all-too-common obstacle? Here's a couple that have worked for me: - I try to set deadlines and adhere to them. I don't always meet my deadlines, but it at least helps give me a nudge into completing something by X date. - I try to break tasks into smaller and manageable steps. This helps reduce the cognitive overload that a big project has. How about you?

Mine is "The Little Prince" and "The Metamorphosis"

I worked in various roles in my life as an employee vs. entrepreneur and have had success either way. Given an option, I would always want to be an entrepreneur, as the option to create something amazing gives me immense satisfaction. Let me know your thoughts

My example is Instagram. It was developed as a check-in and social platform, Instagram pivoted to focus on photo-sharing and editing, becoming one of the most popular social media platforms in the world.

Bing, since its release, was never taken seriously, I feel, at least not when compared to Google. Now with ChatGPT implemented and the potential to further integrate OpenAI into the Bing-sphere, do you think it has a serious chance to challenge Google?

Mine is: create your products as if they will cost a billion tomorrow. But always accept the reality that only one of them will cost a billion, and you don't know which one. What do you think?

As I see PH started to show new discussions daily. Do you think this is good?

This is probably the most faced thing for every founder when things don't go as planned. What are the things you do to ensure you achieve it? I first always have a positive mindset and approach the problem by * Trying to get all the information regarding the problem * Analyze the options on the table and the outcomes * Make a decision on the most logical solution * Plan the steps to execute it * I monitor it all along to ensure that I need to restrategize What is your approach?
