If You Build It, Will They Come?

Users are the most important part of your application, startup, and, ultimately, business.  You must provide them something of value.  That something must resolve some pain point that they have.  It must do something to somehow make their lives easier.

This time, I'll look back at three of the startups I have been involved with and how each one worked with the users: The first was a real estate multiple listing service that was successful; the second was a pay-for-placement search engine that was successful; the third was a FourSquare-type of service for searching local services that was formed and worked several years, then saw success dry up when FourSquare started up.
