About this event
Start With One with Daniel Ahmadizadeh 🍻
Before you build for a million people, can you solve a real problem for one?
It’s easy to describe your ideal customer in a pitch deck. It’s harder to name a specific person, understand what they’re struggling with and build something that makes their life better.
Join Founders on Tap for a workshop with Daniel Ahmadizadeh, an entrepreneur and educator who previously led two Y Combinator-backed startups as CEO and teaches entrepreneurship at Columbia and Stanford.
Daniel will introduce Start With One, his framework for building a business by solving a real problem for one real person, then using what you learn to grow.
We’ll get into:
- How to find the first person to build for. - How to understand their problem before jumping to a solution. - How to test your idea by helping someone, rather than collecting opinions. - What solving one person’s problem can teach you about a bigger market. For founders figuring out where to start, who their product is for or whether they’re building something people actually need.
Bring your idea, your questions and a problem you’re trying to solve. Grab a drink and meet other founders figuring it out alongside you.
