Meilleure citation de The Real Founder Playbook: From Idea to Impact
Successful founding isn't actually about having a brilliant idea; it's about finding a problem worth solving. There are no facts inside your building, only hypotheses, so you must get out and talk to potential customers to find 'hair-on-fire' problems they are desperate to solve.
