Build With Purpose Session 1 | Product vs. Business: Why Your Product Isn't Your Business
Most founders focus on building products. Successful founders focus on building businesses.
Many entrepreneurs spend months building websites, apps, platforms, and digital solutions without first establishing a clear connection between their product, their business model, and their growth objectives. As a result, they often make costly product and technology decisions that fail to create meaningful business outcomes.
