Optimize Your Customer Discovery Process

Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center

Learn how customer discovery done right can propel your startup’s growth with Kanika Mehta.

“Talk to your customers” is common advice every entrepreneur has heard, and rightfully so: according to CB Insights, nearly half of startups that fail created a product or service that didn’t meet a real felt need in the market. But customer discovery, when done wrong, can actually hurt your business more than not doing it at all. Why? Because it reinforces a false positive. The Nasdaq Center is excited to be joined by Kanika Mehta, User Experience Consultant at Empathy Research Labs, for an in-depth look into how to run customer discovery the right way for fast-paced startups. Kanika will talk about how to properly identify customers’ underserved needs and challenges to inform your value proposition and minimum viable product. You’ll walk away with the ability to craft insightful, non-biased questions while avoiding common pitfalls to place your product or service on a trajectory of success. Key Takeaways:<ul><li>How to run iterative customer discovery processes</li><li>Common mistakes and how to avoid them</li><li>Tips to remain cost-efficient and well-aligned with your product/service lifecycle</li></ul> OUR SPECIAL GUEST
