Building With Buyers

You're a startup founder. You think your product is amazing and feel like more people should be buying. But the road is long and slow. It feels like you're stuck.

This is a show about early stage startup growth but unlike other shows about early stage startup growth, only we explore the role customers play in helping startups get to the next round.
