In this episode, I have the privilege of speaking with David Fradin, a seasoned expert in product development from California's Silicon Valley. David has a rich history in technology, having spent years in product management roles at tech giants including Apple and HP.

Throughout the episode, David elaborates on his five keys to product success using the SPICE framework — Strategy, Process, Information, Customer, and Expertise. He shares invaluable insights into why 35% of new products fail and discusses the importance of understanding customer needs rather than rushing products to market without adequate preparation.

Building Insanely Great Products: Some Products Fail, Many Succeed? This is their Story: Lessons from 47 years of experience including Hewlett-Packard, Apple, 75 products, and 11 startups later by David Fradin https://amzn.to/41Y0j2e Building Insanely Great Products: Some Products Fail, Many Succeed…This is their Story is dedicated to one goal: To help you learn how you can enhance the chances of product success and reduce product failure. Steve Jobs coined the term “Building Insanely Great Products” and this book with many real-life examples tells the story of what he meant by that phrase and how every organization can build insanely great products and services. Building Insanely Great Products covers the six keys to success, how to do market research, the importance of customer loyalty, innovation and design, using personas for development and not just marketing, determining the product's value proposition, the correct way to prioritize product features, market sizing that works, market segmentation, product positioning, distribution strategy, product lifecycle framework and process, and the customer journey and digital transformation. As Steve Johnson, the grandfather of product management training says: “... we've learned that companies often don't know why they succeed and why they fail. Many rely on luck; too many rely on “HIPPO”—the highest paid person's opinion. And if you don't know why you succeed, you won't know how to succeed again. About David Fradin David Fradin was a classically trained product manager at Hewlett-Packard during the 50 years that HP grew 20% a year. Apple recruited him to bring the first hard disk drive on a personal computer to market. He soon rose in Apple's management ranks to the same level as Steve Jobs by heading the Apple /// product line and providing the profits which helped fund the development of the Macintosh. Since 1969 he has worked on over 75 products and services, at 25 small, medium and large organizations and eleven startups covering hardware, software, services, internet, SaaS, mobile, advertising, online training, video and for non-profit public policy associations and political campaigns.

Some entrepreneurs believe that all that is necessary to succeed is putting a product out on the market and that miraculously, people will buy it. The truth is there are many more steps needed to ensure that your product or service will be desired by the marketplace. In this episode, I talk with David Fradin from Spice Catalyst about the keys to product success - from topics like how to use the right strategies to market your product or service to having an understanding of what the market is telling you and when to listen to outside ideas instead of internal departments as Kodak did when it canned its digital film department!

The Apple III - Part 3 with David Fradin Welcome to episode 89 of the Floppy Days Podcast, where we love our computers and programmable calculators of the 70’s and 80’s (and even into the 90’s). As mentioned on the last episode, we’ve moved in to the year 1981 for computer introductions and have been discussing the much maligned but misunderstood Apple III for the past couple of shows.  This episode will be the last in the series about that machine. This episode we focus on an interview with someone who was responsible for the Apple III line at Apple in his tenure there, Mr. David Fradin.  David was product manager for that line and has some insights into the challenges of managing and marketing it. Before we get to the interview, I will briefly talk about what I’ve been up to and about some new-to-me vintage computer acquisitions.  I’ll also run through the upcoming vintage computer show schedule for 2019, which is pretty full, and I have a bit of feedback to share.
