43: Strategizing Product Validation
b'
Rob Walling joins Derrick once again as a guest co-host while Ben is traveling in Hong Kong. Rob was Derrick\'s co-founder at Drip, runs MicroConf, and hosts the Startups For the Rest of Us podcast.
\\n\\nDerrick and Rob discuss the latest Level updates and strategize how best to approach previewing product mockups to potential customers. They discuss how the early phase of a startup is very fulfilling because you can be very creative, but also stressful because of risk and uncertainty. Rob gets Derrick\'s feedback about offering one-on-one founder consulting in his spare time.
