The Challenge
The badminton community lacked a centralized platform to connect players with qualified coaches. Existing solutions were fragmented, expensive, or didn't cater to the specific needs of badminton training and skill development.
Strategic Approach
Built a minimum viable product (MVP) focusing on core functionality: coach discovery, booking, and payment processing. Prioritized user experience and community features to encourage organic growth through word-of-mouth and social sharing.
Execution
Developed a full-stack web application using React and Node.js with integrated payment processing via Stripe. Implemented Google Maps API for location-based coach discovery and Firebase for user authentication. Launched with a focused marketing campaign targeting local badminton communities.
Results
Achieved 1,000+ registered users within 30 days of launch, validating strong market demand. Successfully connected 200+ players with coaches and processed $15K in coaching bookings. Established a foundation for scaling to additional sports and geographic markets.
