Today in Founders Korner we have our guest Eddie Irvin who is an app architect and tech advisor. He helps non-technical leaders get their vision out of their head and into a technical app blueprint, which enables them to tell developers in detail what they want to build. With Eddie they get the right system built the first time.

They discuss the technical logistics of starting a founders vision, how to prevent scope creep, the love the two share for app architecture, why simplicity is the ultimate sophistication and so many more nuggets of knowledge for future founders. We highly recommend you pay attention around minute 11:20 for the “Best advice to a founder who is starting their idea”.

Today in the Founders Korner we are talking about research!

Research might be considered a boring topic BUT it is the most critical thing to do as a startup when it comes to the necessity of  understanding your users, before you get deep into product development.

Our guest Filip holds a masters degree in Sociology and has over 10 years of experience in qualitative and quantitative research. He helps companies of all sizes define problems and strategy, get a sense of the market and competition, and evaluate the solutions with users. He also teaches teams on where and how to implement research in the product development life cycle and best research practices so you can better develop your product or service.

They talk about the #1 drawback to not doing research, how assumptions are business killers, why selling value is more important then features, the importance of leading with the solution before understanding the problem AND why founders must always remember to measure twice and cut once.

Watch or listen as Filip blows Sep away with his research approach!
