Good morning. I have got this fantastic book in my hand with beautiful packaging and I've got the thinkers behind it with me today. Their names are Catherine and Alan and I do not have bios for them. So we're going to do it together. Catherine and Alan, are you guys ready to take us to the top? We're ready. All right.
Hell yeah.
Hell yeah. Let's do this. So I don't have a bio.
Chapter 8: How did they validate their product idea before launching?
Tell us what bestself.co is and a little bit about yourselves. Alan, why don't you start?
Sure. Bestself.co is the company that Catherine and I started to help people become the best version of themselves.
And Catherine, Alan, both of you guys, what's your background? I mean, why'd you get into this?
Well, so I used to be an architect and I started a business on the side. I ended up making enough money. I quit being an architect, but I still wasn't seeing the success that I wanted until I started applying like the principles of successful people do. So it's about like goal setting, getting your routine, your good habits.
So once I started following all of these things that work really well, things just started to do much better. And then I got passionate about, okay, well, how do we create products that help people become the best version of themselves? And then, you know, Alan and I were accountability partners working on different businesses.
And this was sort of started as like a passion project between the two of us.
Wait, so are you guys like, is there a romantic connection here or just business?
Hell no.
Well, I just wanted to ask. Alan, Alan, shots fired.
