582: Product market fit is the hardest thing with Jon Gamble

Chad dives into a different kind of development with Jon Gamble, CTO of Fordje (https://www.fordje.com/), as they talk all things city code and construction. Jon breakdowns the different types of construction Fordje (https://www.fordje.com/) covers and the clients they aim to serve, the reality of building a new starter business with a such a small team, the value of trust and communication when developing such a business, and how being the only developer on the team drives creativity and a desire to succeed. — Stay up to date with the work that Jon does with Fordje (https://www.fordje.com/) over on their LinkedIn page (https://www.linkedin.com/company/fordje/), or by connecting with him directly (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonfgamble/).
