How do you make sure in those calls about pain points, that the person you call talks about pain, that is solvable with software? Maybe they drift into management issues? Did not happen?

For some ideas on how to steer the conversation, you might check out two books: Deploy Empathy by Michelle Hansen and The Mom Test by Rob Fitzpatrick.

How do you get email addresses of staff inside companies you don't know? They are not generally published or on websites to stop spam. You could use LinkedIn Sales Navigator to start a conversation but thats not an email. I wonder if there is another technique?
@MicroConf Жыл бұрын
You can use something like Linkedin Navigator to find the people to target, and then use a tool like FindyMail to find the email address of those folks. I invested in FindyMail through TinySeed.

Here’s my challenge with this, the business owners you’re interviewing have way more experience and resources than you do. If they can’t solve their problem, with all their resources...how do you?

Because they don’t have the time to invest and expertise in software .. they can use a ready solution off the shelf but cannot build one. Economies of scale play a big role too.

This isn't accurate. For example, I literally just saw a software engineer who owns a software development agency just ask how he can easily pay his contract employees (over 25 of them) without having to manually send payments to each individual one. He can literally write the software to solve his own problem but obviously doesn't think it's worth it or doesn't have the resources so he is looking to find an application out there for $50 a month that can do it for him. He just posted this on Reddit.
