Operating Lean and Customer Satisfaction

Even after raising funds, operate in a lean manner to manage expenses effectively.

You don’t have to move super fast and burn through all of your funding.

It’s not like you are all in with your hands tied behind your back.

Focus on customer satisfaction and continually address their pain points.

Add features and expand your customer base while being mindful of managing your funding.

Revisit expectations and adjust timelines based on the progress and feedback from customers.

Continuous Discovery and Product-Market Fit

Continuously engage with customers, ask questions, and identify their problems and needs.

Define the problem and ensure your product aligns with the market demand.

Accelerate outreach efforts, leveraging an in-house sales team or using brute force methods to reach potential customers.

It’s a numbers game at the end of the day.

Having a sales person to do outreach and message will help you a lot.

Re-Evaluating as You Progress

Regularly re-evaluate your product and strategy as you progress, adapting to changes in the market and customer feedback.

Simplify communication and make it as easy as possible for customers to engage with your product or service.

Action Items

Establish Metrics and KPIs: Define key metrics and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure the growth and success of your startup. Try to set specific goals and regularly track their progress to ensure effective growth strategies.
