What do you do when a business that you are working on and building is growing but then effectively grounding to a halt due to the COVID-19 Pandemic?
Belgium-based duo, Marie Martens and Filip Minev made a pivot into a problem that they faced themselves, a more customisable yet simple alternative to existing form builder solutions. Marie, a marketer, Filip, a software engineer, began prototyping and building in an IndieHacker fashion.
This episode covers their stories and how they have thought about the processes that have led them to where they are today. Would Marie still study Communications? What would Filip do differently when he and his other co-founders were building Delta?
