Talk to the customer.
Be customer-centric.
Do your customer research.
These are words we hear a lot in the marketing world, especially the fintech one where customer-centricity is one of the unique selling points of fintechs when compared to incumbents.
So - how well do you know your customer? The truth is, we often overestimate how well we understand our customers — me included. “A 30 year old male software engineer with 2 kids who lives in the suburbs and his challenge is figuring out the best way to save for retirement”, doesn’t mean knowing your customer. You know you understand your customer well when you can predict what their next move is.
And often to reach that point, you need to do research. That means doing qualitative and quantitive research. You need to send out surveys, get on calls with them and talk to your sales or support team. Then you start to understand your pain points.
