ThinkNimble Office Hours

Free, expert tech advice

Dig into your most daring questions with our team

ThinkNimble office hours pair startup founders with a member of our executive, product, or engineering teams to dig into your most pressing business, design and technical questions.

ThinkNimble coaches nontechnical founders into becoming confident tech CEOs. As an entrepreneurial agency, we love helping founders think about technology from a “startup-first” mindset. These deep, specific conversations aim to provide real, useful advice to serious founders.

What does a realistic MVP look like? Is this code any good? How can I add AI to my product? How do you build a tech product that scales? How do I align expectations with my new engineer? Are these mockups technically feasible? How much would this cost to build?

How to prepare for Office Hours

We launched office hours as a way to be as helpful as we can for founders as they navigate their product development life cycle. The best way to prepare for your office hours is to come with your most pressing technical question in hand.

Examples of common questions we tackle are:

  • I have a big vision for a tech product. What do you think a realistic, MVP version looks like?

  • We have a MVP for a tech product built. What do you think the next step is to scale this up?

  • How do you build a tech product that scales?

  • How do your Project Managers determine how much time a project will take?

  • How do non-technical founders work with technical teams?

  • Here is a series of mockups for our product. How can we improve the user experience?

  • Here is a mockup for a product feature. Do you see any red flags, as a developer, that would make this difficult to build? 

  • How do you run a beta program for a technology launch? 

  • Here is a roadmap for building product features. Given our engineering team, do you think this scope is realistic?

  • Here is a product feature we want to build, but we don’t know if it is feasible. How would you go about building this? 

  • How do you interview developers? How do you recruit developers?

  • We are looking to hire our first engineer, who should we be looking for?
