1. Startup founders get lost in legal, accounting, and administrative tasks after incorporation, leading to stress and risks due to the lack of a clear, step-by-step plan.
2. The owner of a relaunched bar on the French coast cannot attract an audience in the evening due to the legacy of its past format (nightclub) and its isolated location.
If your launch does not go as planned, do not judge it too quickly. Avoid the instinct to immediately add more features or pivot the product.
Instead, pause and evaluate what already exists. Check whether the core features are clearly communicated, fully polished, and genuinely solve the intended problem. Often, the issue is not the idea, but the execution, positioning, or user experience.
Refine what you have. Improve clarity, usability, onboarding, and messaging. Then relaunch with focus and confidence.
Many products fail not because they were wrong, but because they were unfinished, unclear, or rushed.
