Commit

had 28 1:1 user interviews in the last 2 weeks — giving personal /commit product demos, asking for genuine feedback, and just listening.

you can learn SO MUCH just by asking a few simple open-ended questions, simply listening, and clarifying. just ask — don't overthink it.

congratulations! what was something new you learnt running the exercise?

when your focus is on fast iteration, thoughtful and practical feedback is v valuable.

- users will tell/show you what they find valuable, confusing, missing, or un/neccesary in the product — if you ask the right questions
- people notice you care and build stronger relationships with you when you connect and 'do things that don't scale'
- the surest way to onboard your first 100-1000 users is by personally helping each of them, making them happy (by building something valuable), and encouraging them to invite others
- your community deserves the best possible experience. it's your job to make that happen. they'll be there for you if you're there for them.
- there's no such thing as 'too many interviews/reach outs' — a single piece of feedback from hundreds of interviews can change everything.

talking to users is an assymetric bet. if you do it right and genuinely care — could mean difference between seeing your startup grow or die.

hope this helps
