Failed to achieve product / market fit sufficiently to be interesting as a scalable business. Learnings1. Continuous discovery isn't valued as a concept2. Most discovery is done poorly or 'fudged' or not at all, and we're okay with that 3. Most businesses failures can be traced back to point 2

Smoke and fire Festival catering, BBQ outlet, sauce manufacture - this was my Eleanor but in the movie the car and driver survived. I didn't follow my mantra of test, test, test before spending any money. This was a passion project but the passion overwhelmed everything else. Especially the necessity to be laser-focussed and get to revenue.Working in the business instead of on it, is an absolute killer for innovation for me. That won't happen again. This was the hardest period of my life but it set me on my current path.
