Description
Empathy for people, curiosity to observe the problems and passion to solve them are three traits that drive me everyday to relate to customer problems and solve them in a way that is viable for the business. As a value investor, I believe in efficient capital allocation and best way to accomplish it is quick hypothesis testing before doubling down.
My life mission is to “build products that people never used before and wonder how they lived without them, once they use the products”.
I love reading (rather listening to) books on Product Management, Investing, Psychology and Human Behavior.
Audible (audiobooks) is my favorite app which comes with Amazon’s promise of wide variety, low prices and converts mandatory tasks like travel and workout into productive learnings. By definition audiobooks are best consumed handsfree, hence a handsfree note taking capability bundled with eBook and a two way sync of notes will solve the jobs of readers interested in professional development. This I believe has a potential to increase the average monthly revenue per user by Rs 300 ($4). This is a hypothesis worth testing.
