What You’ll Learn

  • Ask Better Customer Questions
  • Separate Evidence from Compliments
  • Test Demand Before Building

Friendly encouragement can sound like demand even when nobody is ready to buy. Rob Fitzpatrick shows first-time founders how to ask better questions, explore customers' actual experiences, and learn without steering a conversation toward compliments. Read it before your first customer interviews to make those conversations more useful and uncover problems worth solving before you commit to building a solution.
