[Weekly Retro] You don't need to solve all the problems
#198 - Nov.2024
Happy Friday!
💡 Here is a quick idea before you head off to the weekend:
Your product doesn’t need to solve all of your customers' problems.
You don't have to meet every single need they have.
Sometimes, people think being customer-centric means trying to solve every possible problem.
In my experience, this often leads to average products and quickly become replaceable.
This is why focus is so important—use your product strategy to communicate that focus.
It’s better to do a few memorable things really well than to have lots of features that customers won’t remember.
Don't give your customers a reason to switch you at the first alternative.
