- Опубліковано 18 вер 2024
- This week, Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, co-founders of 37signals, examine why it's advantageous to keep things simple - in both products and business. They challenge the idea that complex or bespoke tools are the best way to go and lean into not overcomplicating things.
Key Takeaways
00:34 - The power of keeping things simple
10:55 - Why small businesses don't need to act like big businesses
12:04 - The beauty of embracing what you don’t know when starting something new
18:01 - Building products with depth versus surface area
23:09 - Knowing when to listen to customers for product input and ideas

Basic stuff is usually seen as "something we used to worry about, but not anymore". Basic stuff doesn't usually raise funds or make good advertisement. But it's called basic for a reason, it's the basis for other things. Solid bases sustain sophisticated stuff longer and better!
Nicely said! Thanks for watching. -Kimberly
