Month: March 2022

• Which class day did you gain the most traction…
  • on your venture projects?
    • I honestly cannot think of a specific one, I also think it is hard because I already had a good idea of what I was doing. I think showing up to class in general reminds me of my purpose for the project and pushes me to work more.
  • for your own personal growth?
    • During the E4 shift and share, when we did the the big 3 in our lives and tied it to our schedule. It really helped me realize the important things in my life and I think that was a very valuable lesson that allowed me to grow.
• At what point in the quarter did you feel the most empowered?
  • Doing my presentation and seeing everything with my project come together.
• Think back to a time when you felt the most challenged in this class? How did that challenge make you feel?
  • Made me feel tired, burnt out, and discouraged. It is important to let any of those things defeat you, always have to keep pushing forward.
• What content within the Learning Toolkit in the E&I website would you like to know more about?
  • I don’t think any of them 🙂 I think I have a pretty good understanding on the class work and the learning toolkit.

Reflect on your interview process.

• Drop a few of your questions here. 
  • “What are the biggest challenges people face within NFTs?”
  • “What makes a good utility?”
• What were some of the answers? 
  • “Filtering of honest vs paid information, lots of influencers in the space that are honest, but plenty that are just looking to pump their bags. It’s hard to go against the grain and sit something out when you see red flags not many others do.”
  • “Something that provides real value to the project. The utility needs to allow the NFT value to grow and provide legitimate revenue, that is the goal.”
• What did you learn?
  • These two questions gave me a lot of insight on what some of the biggest pains in the community are and what people really want to see for a utility.
• Do you feel like your interviews were successful? Why or why not?
  • Yes I do, I think my interview questions really helped me development empathy for my customer, I am also a customer which made it easier to relate and recognize the common issues people were reporting.
• What would you do differently next time?
  • I would have focused it more on how to start the project. Such as, when to open the discord? When to announce mint details? I now know these things, but it would have been better to know at the start.
• Ask your peers for feedback on your interview process and/or interview questions here.
  • Feedback in comments please!
• Outside of E&I this week.
  • Not a lot, just spent more time on the Pixies and got to go hiking one of the days.
