    We found it quite useful for formulating client "profiles" and UVPs, and giving a base for further testing ideas. Also it was interesting to get a sideview on the business idea overall.

    Our main challenge was to define our go-to-market strategy. It was hard for our team to choose a direction, where to begin. The workshop helped us create structure and define a clear path of what to do next. In less than 2 hours!!!

Your Questions Answered

Blog 📚

Insightful articles that can help you overcome some obstacles when building a startup

Why you should validate your business idea before wasting time and money

It’s great to have a startup idea that we are excited about, but even better to know if it has potential before wasting so many resources developing something that, maybe doesn’t have a big enough market or isn’t really a pressing pain point.

How to find and validate business ideas

Finding an idea is the easiest part of building a venture. Understanding and accepting that the idea you thought was worth a million dollars, in fact, needs to be pivoted, can be quite hard.

How to find the right co-founder?

Having the right co-founder by your side, a person that, just like you, is passionate about the product or service you’re both building, is crucial to help you overcome every obstacle and major decision you face.
