Quotes
- “I want you to specifically ask them about the problems or the challenges that they're running into so that you can use their words in labeling how you solve their problems or the aspirations they are trying to achieve.” 22:13
- “Go to the people, talk to the people, listen, and don't have an agenda. Your only agenda is to understand and get curious and then see what they come back with. They might all come back with the same problem. Now, how are you gonna tackle that problem?” 23:32
- “I would absolutely recommend that you record your interviews so that you can be present in the interviews and then go back later and go back through and pick out the patterns and the things that they say. And then focus on the words that they're using because you wanna use their words back at them in your marketing.” 25:41
