QUOTES

Laurin - On-boarding as a new product manager:
“The first 90 days are crucial to how you're going to basically get on-boarded to the new company, to a new product that you're working on. So when I was a new product manager starting out in that company, before I even had any leadership and strategic responsibilities, I really wanted to get an understanding.

Laurin - Defining Product Market Fit:
“It basically means you need to define the metric for your price, about what you based on what the nature of the product is, what product market fit would mean for you.”

Laurin - Mistakes are part of the game:
“You shouldn't be afraid to make mistakes, because otherwise, you will only try to make safe changes that don't change the game, then you'll just start optimizing and trying to improve metrics by a little bit because you're afraid to make big changes that could have a big impact.”
