"Delivering a transformative mission to my customers rather than a "product""Your Graduation Story
I've found EPM a great structure to take a vague product idea and systematically flesh it out into a version 0.1 product so that I can hone it by delivering the content live with real customers. This is an important shift for me and is an excellent 'Lean' approach for getting feedback from the field without over-investing in producing 'hard to change' content.
I haven't achieved Mission Accomplished as there was a pretty steep ramp at the end of EPM that coincided with Summer holidays here in Australia. I found the marketing part of the course was more vague in terms of concrete deliverables than the early product development modules. For someone starting with no list, no current audience and a limited budget, this is the hardest part of the process to put together.
However, these are only obstacles in terms of reaching the finish line in the 10 week timetable. I feel like I have a direction and many things that I can test, and part of that is the confidence that comes from a clear mission and product delivery roadmap.
Overall, EPM is one of the best courses I've invested in and I have received 10x the value of the course investment so wouldn't even consider asking for the refund although I could have qualified for it.
Thanks for the genuine spirit in which the course was delivered by Marissa and my coach Domonique. I plan to come back to you as a success story down the track!!
