I came up with a product idea on the spot and pitched it to my fellow attendees in person. I'm an engineer at heart and sitting behind a terminal is comfort zone for me. For me to be a great entrepreneur, I need to get comfortable pitching and with rejection. What I did today: Came up with an idea, pitched it to my fellow attendees and used that feedback to refine it. Go from level 0 to Level 2 depth and detail of the idea with real world feedback Outcome expectations: Get brutal feedback on why this product makes or does not make sense and get into the habit of pitching + listening to my users (without getting defensive !!) The actual Idea Pitch: Shopping for mobiles, smartwatches, laptops and even car requires a huge amount of research. Cause these products have atleast 50 different features and you actually don't care about all 50. What if you give me your preferences and I produce a simple to understand video or a reel with the exact information you were looking for !
