    well MJ was right as were others when he said that the whole application process was just a marketing ploy; I don't think anyone was "turned" away the information was laid out in a very sloppy manner honestly-- the info that was put was not bad at all-- just not laid out in any coherent way...

    Ive read Lean Startup and I found it hard to find actionable clear steps. I understand and agree with the process but Its tough when you're looking for specifics. " do you just pull an idea out of thin air and then begin testing it?" no I dont think so Right now my biggest issue is which...

    okay so I could really use some advice regarding a specific issue here. I cannot decide which Niche market to target to create a SaaS product. Ideally my business would be only me. I would outsource development and do the marketing myself. However I just can not seem to nail down an...

    this quote is going on my wall. They harp on clearly defining the problem. But the general skills of getting a problem out of someone and also asking for what they want is such a hard skill to get down and something I suck at doing right now. Most of my calls are me asking them about their day...

    I think changing the questioning is the way to go. I need to keep questioning until I either find what Im looking for OR discovery that this industry is no good. Dane releases content and gives 1 on 1 coaching and does conference calls. I have to say Ive been impressed with how involved hes been.

    Hey Thanks so much for the kind words. I think Im going through a bump in the road that is shaking my self confidence in myself. I just don't want to be one of those people who " just has faith" and ends up doing something stupid when I should have changed course a long time ago. Thanks !

    So I like when you said they currently pay for a non all in one solution. I think that is the telling part that is really throwing me. I feel like I contacted really smart and savvy people in the Family Fun Center market, they told me what THEY think is needed in the market, and they seem to be...

But its whats after that that Im not sure about. is the SaaS business model solution a fit for the problem...
