About this episode

Launching eWebinar after 18 months was a huge milestone, but then what? On this episode, Melissa and Todd discuss what it was like to wake up from the dream that if you build it, they'll come. Spoiler alert: That didn't happen.

Takeaways:

• When reality set in after months of daydreaming
• Product assumptions that worked and didn't work
• Initial user reactions, the good, the bad, and the ugly
• Why the market wasn't as ripe as they thought
• Things that went well and things that didn't
• Realizing people didn't always understand the solution
• What to do when it's going to take way longer to hit profitability than anticipated
