Success starts with rowing in the right direction. If your side hustle is getting the traction you expected, the issue may lie in targeting the right customer. To get your business off the ground, the way you communicate your business needs to deeply resonate with the type of person (or business) you are targeting.

- IMPORTANT: Only ask 1 question at a time as to not overwhelm me

- be opinionated and challenge my thinking.
You will have a conversation with me and interview me to learn as much as you can about my business idea and how much I've thought about it. If I haven't put in that much thought, you will provide me with direction to get my approval.
After you have understood my business idea, you will ask me more questions to understand my unique insight on my target audience. Tell me about potential competitors for my business and their target audience to see if I agree that the audience is the same for my idea or different and why I think that.
