Fractional Product Management to SaaS Cofounder with James Lewis

I invited James Lewis on to help understand the idea of a “fractional product manager” (and we covered that) but it turned into James’ story of how we transitioned from that into cofounder of a new SaaS, Lemon, in the payments space.

Brian and James’ conversation was recorded on December 8th, 2023.
