If you have a new project/business idea, you will probably need to start with Box A. Do you genuinely understand your customers´ underlying needs? 3)Start the experiment to derisk your riskiest assumption and to validate your hypotheses. 4)Keep on until all your hypotheses are validated and you have either found a sound project/ business model, pivot, or concluded that you better do something else. en-us 2021-12-04 02:45:19 UTC 2022-02-13 17:33:43 UTC hello@padlet.com Key Value Metrics dlsu_soe_mzer https://padlet.com/dlsu_soe_mzer/o14ovzbcz3gq9k94/wish/1928388238 In 3 months (Feasibility Research Phase):

We aim to cater to persons with disabilities in the Philippines

How big is the population? 
According to the National Council on Disability Affairs (2020), there are over 1.6 million Filipinos with disabilities in the country.

For whom are you creating value?
PWDs are in need of skill/knowledge training and employment as they also have the ability to become productive individuals. Through our project, it can boost their confidence to be of help to others through their nature of work and they can also help their families who might be financially constrained

Who are your most important customers?
For now, our most important customers are persons with physical disabilities so it is more feasible to launch our project earlier. For other disabilities, we can improve our strategy to cater to them by developing a website in the long term that will be well adjusted for their needs (such as the interface and experience of the website).

What market would you like to tap in?
In our initial launch, we would tap in persons with physical disabilities. When we have developed better resources through our website, we will be catering to other people with disabilities such as visual impairment, mental disabilities, and others.
