How to Build a Product Company with Andreas Prins

Andreas Prins comes on to share the pivot and journey he’s gone through with StackState, a product company. My biggest takeaway is how much more effective you can be by solving one problem, and solving it really well. By maintaining focus on a single use case, things become simpler and more clear. Both from a customer perspective, as well as from the teams that build the product.


“If you need 6 web pages to explain what you do, you might want to rethink your solution”

One of my favourite quotes from the episode.


It was a real pleasure to learn from his journey and I hope it’s a good listen as well :)

Enjoy! 🎙
