MG$4.17/min per minuteNew ArrivalI Will Tell You What's Both Minimal and Viable.Michael Gruen • New York, New YorkCreated 11 years ago in Product & Design / Lean StartupMVP: Minimum Viable Product. Oftentimes, your product is not a pile of code but an inexpensive process that's cheaper and faster than building software. Don't get sucked into the idea that you need an engineer to prove the concept and start making money. Sometimes, all you need is a few well-thought out spreadsheets, a splash page, and a cellphone.Michael Gruen New York, New YorkNew Arrival
