Description
Joining us is friend and colleague Keir Whitaker. Keir works at Shopify as their Designer Advocate. Like us, he's also had a lot of side projects.
In this episode we discuss:
What's a side project, why have one?
The importance of projects. I have many, some worked, most didn't, and all were
lessons learned
Using Shopify to launch an MVP and validate a side
project.
How despite all the advances in technology, good business
is still about personal relationships (and conferences are the fast
track to those)
