Andreas Eenfeldt:Diet Doctor的成功主要归功于早期进入低碳饮食市场以及强大的SEO优化,使其在2018-2020年低碳饮食热潮来临时占据领先地位。成功的关键在于提前预判趋势,成为该领域的专家,比其他人更早地发现机遇,并专注于将低碳饮食以更简单、有效、易用的方式呈现给用户。他认为,与其模仿现有产品,不如专注于创造真正有价值的、与众不同的产品,即使这更难,但成功后的回报也更大。他强调了持续创新的重要性,并以英伟达创始人黄仁勋的经验为例,说明了关注早期成功指标(如找到真正热爱产品的人群)以及产品从根本上的优越性对持续创新的重要性。在Diet Doctor的转型过程中,他希望自己能够更快地适应变化,更早地预见未来的趋势。 Rudy Mawer:他认同创新意味着进入蓝海市场,减少竞争,创造独特价值。他认为,创业者应该在稳固现有业务的同时,积极探索新的创新方向,并勇于尝试。他指出,创新并不一定意味着创造全新的产品,也可以是对现有产品的改进和优化,例如提高用户体验,简化使用流程等。
