88: Teresa Torres - Under the hood of Solopreneurship
Pricing, seeking advice and energy management
Teresa Torres offers a rare sneak peek behind the curtain of how she runs her business. How can you maximize your chances when you’re reaching out to people like us who have limited attention to go around?
What is our pricing strategy for what we do, and how did we come up with it? How does Teresa’s demand generation differ from Marty Cagan's or mine?

Season 4 of the Product Tea
We spill the tea on how to Go to Market through Product-led Sales and Product-led Growth in B2B and the realities of senior leadership.
I didn't expect this podcast, and it has been a positive discovery.
Got a lot of insights, and value on how to set the right boundaries, be specific about what you need when reaching people that might be receiving a lot of input. Plus, talking about pricing models and rates with that transparency is super! 🙌
Loved the setting boundaries part.
