Welcome to prototyping.tips

Published on

Hey and welcome to prototyping.tips!

my name is Markus and I'm a software prototyper at a great company called Orange Hills. We help companies to close the gap between ideas and first revenue with Business Design. I don't know how you ended up here, but you probably want to know what this this weird thing is, right? Ok, let me try to answer some questions you might have:

What is prototyping.tips?

This is my personal space where I want to talk about my passion: Building software prototypes in Business Design Sprints. A space where I can put out my thoughts, inspirations, ideas. Share what I learn and what I think about. Raw but real.

Why does the world need this?

To be honest, I don't know if the world needs this (probably not). But what I learned over the years: What I do needs explanation & context. The profession of "building software prototypes in Business Design" just doesn't exist. Thats why I want to talk about it. To establish what I do. Because I think it's important.

On a side note: My deepest hope is that this will help that my parents finally understand what I do for a living (believe me, I tried very hard to explain it to them - with no success).

Why do I need this?

Mostly selfish reasons:

  • I want to improve my writing skills

  • I want to get feedback on my work to learn and grow

  • I want to find people who do the same things like me

  • I want to force myself into writing down what I learn. This will help me to structure my thoughts.

Why don't you call this just "blog"?

Because I'm too lazy to write big blog posts. Tips are meant to be short, right? My idea is to write little nuggets. Not long blogposts. But who knows?

What can you expect in the next couple of months?

Everybody needs goals: I want to write one hot tip per week. For at least six months.

Thanks for coming along. If you have any questions or feedback, don't hesitate to contact me at markus@prototyping.tips!
