I'm a pretty smart guy. Degree in math from a top university, started a few companies, etc., but I am totally, completely confused by what your product does.

I'm a pretty smart guy. Degree in math from a top university, started a few companies, etc., but I am totally, completely confused by what your product does.
And you're expecting someone who hasn't decided they're really going to make a go at understanding your product (i.e., the average, time-starved consumer) to not only understand but hand over money to use your product?
- jiganti 16y agoI played high stakes poker for years and so understanding higher levels of "metagame" (I think that he thinks that I think, etc) comes easy to me. Naturally this is a problem when it's largely what my idea hinges upon and the target market isn't familiar with it.
- jfarmer 16y agoYou're on Mars, man. None of that has anything to do with your customer. What hurt does your product soothe? Right now you're describing a (very complicated) mechanism. It's what you use that mechanism for that counts. As an exercise I'd come up with three customer stories and write a pretend press release for your product, because right now it's f^%$ing confusing.
