My work as a PM
At Homejam, I worked as Product Manager supervising the ideation, planning and development of Video platform for creative Industry.
The idea initially started with hosting 1 hour long meet and greet sessions of artists with their fans. Later we learned that Zoom is not built for creative professionals. Poor audio and video quality on zoom due to its compression, did not delivered optimum quality to host a session.
After interviewing various artists in different domain and understanding their pain points, we got to learn that there is a need to build a video platform. To narrow our focus, we started decided to make the platform specifically for dance instructors.
