Quotes
- “You are not trying to prove that you are right. You are trying to gather information to see if you were right or see if you need to tweak things or adjust them entirely.” 3:12
- “If you go out doing audience research trying to prove that you are correct, you will be doing it wrong and you will be doing yourself a huge disservice. And there's really no point in doing audience research if you're just trying to prove your point. You need to be going out open-minded and try to listen to the words that they're using and really listen to what they're trying to communicate versus just trying to validate what you think you want to hear them say.” 3:25
- “You should start seeing patterns in their responses between the fourth and fifth interview, and then you're looking at interviews five, six, seven to validate that. So I'm going to recommend you go out and conduct five to seven interviews. If you can do more, awesome, do more.” 5:26
