Opposite side of the same question, but how can I better approach solo devs to help with marketing? I have led marketing at several startups/companies (3 acquisitions, 1 current unicorn, and 1 public company). Most developers are rightfully cautious bc of being either burned by marketing types in the past or just don't like the overall vibe (I don't blame them). I work best 1-on-1 with a builders and would like to do this more to get out of the bureaucracy of larger companies, but have mostly spun my wheels.

Yes, DD on sales and marketing strategy to understand if the underlying economics are sustainable.

AMA question: I've never personally been through this process, but I assume go-to-market DD is typically part of the process. Are there specialized firms that handle that side of the equation?

Came here to say this. Just finished reading it and there are so many parallels between the book and our current trajectory. Namely, as technology continues to abstract struggle from our daily lives and entertainment becomes more of an immersive escape, the motivation to solve true personal and societal problems slowly disappears.

The way Apple paints this is that it's them vs. evil Facebook. Don't get me wrong, Facebook has certainly overstepped several times in their data mining practices, but a lot of these changes will almost exclusively hurt small and medium sized businesses that have been able to inexpensively reach target customers for niche and/or local products.
