The Founder's Foyer with Aishwarya: Product–founder–channel market fit, building & launching 0-1 products

Ft. Emily Tate, Managing Director of Mind the Product, world’s largest community of product people. We discuss about customer feedback, user research, founder toolkit for launching, & more

Hey everyone,

Here’s this week’s update from the The Founder’s Foyer show!

Launching the product you build involves massive effort—not just in terms of shipping, but also figuring out the ways in which your audience finds satisfaction with your product. Do they find value? Of course, it’s important to align your product with the market, especially with the right problems to be solved.

Emily Tate, Managing Director of Mind the Product, sits down with me to discuss product, market, channels, and how to achieve a fit across all of those. 

How to build and launch a product that people find value in? There’s so much nuance to what gets built, what goes out as an experience for the user, and they way they get to interact with the product to solve their problems.
