Over 25 years of building new businesses from scratch, I made a lot of mistakes. Every time I learned a lesson, I wrote it down and developed a process to avoid making that mistake again. Over time, I saw the patterns and discovered the keys to startup success.

When I was asked to teach it to other Founders, I gave it a name: Insight-Driven Iteration. I continue to use the method to build more startups and learn more lessons.

For sincere, committed Founders who are willing to do the work, I teach my validation method so they can improve their odds of startup success.
