What they are AGAINST
My dream customer:
Biggest desire is to become a programmer — to land a job as a programmer. They want to BE that person, they want to BECOME a programmer /coder. They want their company to value them, they want to be part of the future. They think programming and computers are sexy. They think becoming a programmer is the best investment they can make in themselves, the best gift they can give themselves.
Their biggest fear: What if I am not smart enough? What if I am overwhelmed? What if I am picking the wrong programming language to learn? What if I want to look smart, but come across as a jerk? I’m a nice person. What if what I’m learning now, will quickly become obsolete? I heard Java is old.
What are they FOR? Automation, creating value. They are not against computers replacing humans, they see the possibilities of a better world for all. (If you’re against that, get a job that doesn’t matter.) They are for providing as much value as possible. They are for hard work. Grit. They are proud of the fact that they are busting their asses learning this.
What are they AGAINST? What do I want them to almost take offence at? Short term thinking. Mastery takes a life time. "Shiny new objects"; there are battle-proven technologies that will do the job, the others are great fun, but for hobby-projects. Being needy. Giving up quickly. Asking before Googling.
They are self-driven, curious. Take control and take responsibility.

En Teknomade er nysgjerrig.
En Teknomade er leken.
En Teknomade kan se skjønnheten i kode.
En Teknomade deler gladelig av sin kunnskap.
En Teknomade tar ansvar. For at egen kode kjører. Og for at teamets kode kjører. Og for at alle har det bra.
En Teknomade skjønner at for å bygge raskt, må du bygge langsomt. Stein på stein.
En Teknomade bryr seg.
En Teknomade gjør verden bedre med kode.
I believe programmers create the future. I view my fellow programmer as family. I want to do everything I can to support that person because I believe we share the same mission. We are in it together to create the future.
Jeg er i MOT å bruke kode for å spionere, for å styre raketter, for å lage lotterier der folk blir fralurt pengene sine. Jeg mener en programmerer er gud, og må ta ansvar for kreftene som er i hens hender. Jeg er i mot å bruke kode for å overvåke mennesker, for å styre mennesker som i Saudi eller Kina.
Jeg er for å bruke kode til å erstatte mellomledere (Uber), men mot å bruke det til å utnyttte arbeidere (Uber).
Demographics
-
Surface level demographics help support "surface positioning"
-
What gender?
-
How old?
-
What do they need to SEE in order to be open to your presentation of values?
Surface level positioning’s made up by: Your UNIFORM and LANGUAGE. What you wear and look like. How you speak.
SET, SETTING, SYMBOLS.
Where are you? Where are the videos? Do you have symbols representing the desired outcomes and values?
ASSOCIATION: who are you seen with in the market?
