Hey it's Valdo.

When Pete, The Product Guy, joined an innovative EV charging startup years ago, it was chaos.

🚨 They were bleeding cash. Salaries delayed.

🚨 The team was at war over the company vision.

🚨 Strategy was = “Get more users” (cool, but how?)

Looking in from the outside, it should have worked.

Their product was solid. The market was real. The team was sharp.

But they were failing. Hard.

Why?

They had no product system.

Just activity. Execution. But no clarity. No direction.

So he did what any calm, collected product manager would do:

He pulled out the Product Operator system and went to war.

Here’s how he closed a market-defining deal—and turned the whole company around—by running the exact system he now teaches others.

1. Discovering (Finding the real pain)

He started by getting painfully clear on the Ideal Customer Profile.

He wasn’t looking for guesses—he wanted pain.

So he looked at driver forums, did voice-of-customer research, and finally struck gold:

Uber drivers were quitting because they were losing 3+ hours per day charging their EVs at supermarkets.

That was their wedge. The pain was real. The problem was urgent.

And their product could solve it.

2. Strategizing (Framing the opportunity)

Once they had the pain, he built a one-page strategic narrative.

✅ What the problem was

✅ Who actually felt that problem

✅ Why the problem hadn’t been solved

✅ And what we’d need to change internally to deliver a real solution to it

The team finally stopped arguing.

They now had a shared language—and a plan.

3. Planning (Aligning the roadmap)

He mapped the Uber use case into their roadmap using Product Operator’s feature and epic tools.

Each initiative was tied directly to a pain point and a measurable outcome.

No fluff. No “nice to haves.”

Only what moved the needle for this deal.

4. Building (Prioritization, not panic)

They didn’t build faster. They built smarter.

The team used the Development Planner to break down the new features, assign ownership, and run weekly reviews.

What once took 4 weeks now took 7 days—because they weren’t context-switching or second-guessing every move.

5. Releasing (Closing the feedback loop)

They launched a tailored release just for Uber drivers.

Used the Release Tracker to monitor adoption, friction, and feedback.

Improved it in 48 hours.

Then took that data and handed it to Uber’s operations team.

That’s when they closed the deal.

They saw how they solved the problem.

The problem they discovered by digging into the pain.

Following Pete's exact 5-step system transformed their business.

And now?
