Define the Needs of Your Target Audience While Growing a Customer Base for Launch – Build a Cubicle Free Business Podcast – Episode 6
This week we tackle a challenge the guys face with fully understanding the opportunity they think exists but need to validate and define.
After sending out many targeted emails over past week they are concerned that they have not gone far enough to get an accurate understanding of the needs for the market they wish to serve.

In This Episode You Will Learn;
