Product & Startup Builder

Is it reasonable to pivot your company to capture an “opportunity” like caronavirus?

Added on by Chris Saad.

As a startup and as a founder, it’s critical to respond to day-to-day opportunities in an agile way. Your company must be able to flex and pivot to leverage unexpected moments (yes, including coronavirus) to capture new users/opportunities. These flexes, however, should be...

A. Relatively minor deviations from the existing product/product priorities (as it is, not as you wish it to be)

B. Aligned with the long term strategy of the product and business (not locking you into a new/different path)

C. Executed by an effective, hungry, happy team (not add to any existing burnout).
