Ask HN: Face2face app feedback before/after Startup School

1 point

17 years ago

We are a Manila-based startup building Insync (Google Apps meets SharePoint) best described as FTP/email attachment/USB drive replacements for syncing and sharing targeting companies. I'm attending Startup School and wanted to talk to potential customers/attendees before and after Startup School as part of our "get out of the building" process (and make the best use of my time in Silicon Valley).

We have done some customer development work using a prototype (and signed a few beta customers) but we now have a more "polished" product in private beta.

I'm reaching out to the HN community for 2 reasons: 1) We need (more) feedback/criticism - if you are interested in helping test, please email me at terpua [at] xackup [com]. Ideally, you are a company with 3 or more people. Sorry in advance for making the sign up process cumbersome.

2) As part of the testing and feedback, we wanted to set up a "feedback booth" (coffee shop, etc.) in SF or Mountain View for a day or two and receive face2face feedback (from HN users, as well as others) in 15 - 30 minute blocks.

Is this a crazy plan?
