However, as with much else in the entrepreneurial space, you need to keep it simple and be willing to constantly iterate. If you keep these advantages and pitfalls in mind, you can launch your first content quickly and start gauging the response. LAUNCHING SOCIAL CAMPAIGNS WITHOUT PRODUCT: Many startups are still refining their MVP. Others are operating within stealth until there is a case study compiled. Regardless, it is still necessary to broadcast your brand. In fact, it’s vital for gaining more funding and maintaining visibility within the local ecosystem. If your team is pre-product—for whatever reason—focus on the problem you’re solving and the people involved. The other elements will congeal as time goes on. For now, focus on the day-to-day and don’t be afraid to show both your grow...
