In this episode, Chris Do speaks with Ranbir Arora about reaching product–market fit without lighting the budget on fire. They explore One Day’s “university for entrepreneurs,” how the mentor-led model works in practice, and why its accredited MBA is earned by building a real business—not cranking out essays.
They also cover how to start by finding a real, painful problem, prove demand before building, and work through seven types of pivots—problem, solution, customer, price, funnel, channel, messaging—from biggest to smallest to diagnose what’s stuck. Listeners walk away with clear litmus tests and simple experiments to move faster and stop guessing.
