You’ve got an amazing idea for a new product. You think it’s great, but how can you be sure? How can you test your product to see if people really want it? That’s where the minimum viable product comes in.
A minimum viable product (MVP) is a development technique in which a new product or website is developed with sufficient features to satisfy early adopters. It is a strategy used by companies such as Amazon, Dropbox and Instagram to develop products that are released early in their cycle and then updated based on customer feedback.
It’s hard to believe that there are still so many startups out there who have failed to launch or deliver a minimum viable product. If you want to be one of the success stories, follow these five steps for developing your MVP:
1) Find a problem worth solving, something people will pay money to solve.
2) Find the most difficult piece of that problem.
3) Break it into components and start with the easiest piece.
4) Build something simple that solves part of your problem
5) Iterate!
Creating a minimum viable product is the first step to building your app. The second step is to develop it and test it with real users, so you can get feedback on how well your concept works for them. This will help you improve your product before launching it, ensuring that you have a successful launch and early adoption.
