Don't be discouraged by experts who dismiss your idea if they aren't users themselves; their lack of experience with the existing product's pain points may cloud their judgment.

Many founders fear that if they give their product to users and it doesn't work, their company will fail, but in reality, the company doesn't die immediately; you can always improve the product based on feedback.

If your product isn't improving customers' lives, it may be time to step back and rethink your approach to create something that significantly benefits them.

In product development, start with proven concepts that users already love. You should not change what works; instead, build upon it to create something better.

I learned that if you sell the implementation of a solution rather than the problem it solves, you won't convince users that you've addressed their needs effectively.

If you're trying to sell a technology and it's not gaining traction, consider building a competing product that effectively addresses the same need, like creating a fintech co-pilot if the market isn't responding to your current offering.

It's essential to probe deeper into the problems your users face, rather than just focusing on how your product solves them.

If you're stuck at a certain level of product-market fit, you should consider making significant changes rather than minor adjustments to your approach.

To successfully switch users from existing solutions, identify moments when your product offers significant advantages over competitors. Highlight these differentiators to encourage users to make the switch.
