"It was an amazing experience! Thank you Prodzen for your insights and prodding us to get out of our comfort zones to find scalable, repeatable, and profitable business models."
Navin Thangiah, Co-founder, MobileOffize
Found the engagement quite useful. Frank discussions validated what we are doing right and provided an understanding of what we are not doing right. Just like in a car race, it's important to make a pit stop; this was a very significant pit stop. A fresh set of eyes, new energy in the team, and realignment. Overall, a wonderful experience."
Vikram Saxena, Founder and CEO, BetterCommerce
"Our experience has been refreshingly great. As a service company entering into the B2B SaaS product market, we had more than our fair share of challenges to overcome. We tried multiple external freelancers and agencies before coming across Kaustubh and The Prodzen. Things that worked great for us - realistic expectations set from day one, crucial expertise provided in "gap" areas like product management, pricing fundamentals, and a holistic consulting approach with real-life examples called upon to make sense."
Prathamesh Bhingarde, Co-founder and MD, Futuroot
