MVP Strategy, Features, & Design
Created 10 years ago in Product & Design / Lean Startup

When creating a minimum viable product, prioritizing effectively is paramount. Which are the core features that are immediate 'need-to-haves', and which can wait for future rounds of building, measuring, & learning? I will help ensure that your MVP will engage your users from Day 1.
What is your product's unique selling proposition that can help you rise above the noise in a crowded marketplace? Given the competitive landscape, will your product fill a niche or meet an unfilled need? Is there any market share left for new entrants? I will help you answer these and many other critical strategic questions.
My core philosophy is that identifying and listening to the voice of your target audience is not just A key success factor, but THE key success factor. Once you truly understand who you are making your product for, then when your consumers ask "What's In It For Me?" (and they always ask), you will have the answer.
