This workshop helps early-stage founders move beyond gut instinct and learn how to deeply understand their customers before committing to product decisions. Participants will work through a guided, practical framework to turn assumptions into validated market insight.
Who Should Attend This Workshop:
Early-stage startup founders (idea to early traction)
Founders who are building or planning to build a product
Entrepreneurs relying heavily on intuition and informal feedback
Startup teams struggling with Product–Market Fi
First-time founders unsure if they are solving the right problem
Why This Workshop:
Most startup failures trace back to poor market understanding, not poor execution
Founders often confuse interest with demand and feedback with validation
Intuition without customer evidence can lead to expensive product detours
Traditional market research feels too academic or too heavy for early stages
Founders need a practical, lightweight, and repeatable approach to research

Clearly articulate your current customer hypothesis
Learn how to conduct meaningful customer conversations
Identify real signals vs misleading feedback
Understand how to segment markets and choose a beachhead
Build intuition around TAM, SAM, SOM without false precision
Understand who really influences buying decisions (DMU)

Great startups are not built by guessing better —
they are built by learning faster.
