I noticed that some hackers struggle with different forms of customer development like finding first customers, validating ideas, growing customer base etc.<p>I would like to understand if such difficulties are common. I would really appreciate if you answer following questions:<p>1) Is customer development hard for you?<p>2) Why is it hard? What stops you from making progress?<p>3) What do you need to start making progress?<p>I appreciate all your responses. I love working with entrepreneurs and looking for new ways of how I could help.
