Customer Development We were starting Epiphany, my last company. I was out and about in Silicon Valley doing what I would now call Customer Discovery trying to understand how marketing departments in large corporations worked. We consciously didn’t ask potential customers to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).

Don’t Even Ask for an NDA This just makes me laugh. UPDATE: It is of course perfectly reasonable to ask for an NDA before giving away the super secret sauce. As a corollary, cold call a VC and try and get them to sign an NDA before your first meeting. It means there actually might be a market for your idea.

Whats is the best way to find a co-founder for your startup? I need a good reliable developer and also a mentor to help guide me through the process. Should I require and NDA? However, one of my co-founders doesn’t seem to be as motivated as the rest of us. They don’t think about the customers problem.
