10 tips for
Better Startup
Product Development
1. Start with a problem
  What is the problem?
  Understand your customers. Are you one of them?

                             something        something
                             people           people
                             want             want
2. Research the market
  Surveys, B2B reports, competitor analysis
  Business strategy -> guides -> product strategy
  Route to market?
3. Launch early
  Get version 1 out ASAP
  Feedback is invaluable. Law of diminishing returns
  Stealth or Open?
4. KISS
  Keep it simple stupid. Solve one problem
  Building a product is like designing a house from
 scratch.
5. Build and iterate
  Roll out fast
  Test instead of speculate + Remove features
  Keep the main thing the main thing
6. Be Agile
  Release Cycle?

  Small teams eg Apple Mac
7. Continuous improvement
  Early stage 1-on-1 user testing. Apple store
  Measure, track and test
  Circular product life cycles
8. Prioritise
  Time + engineering resource constraints
  Define and communicate prioritisation criteria
  Growth? Revenue? Stickyness?
9. Analyse
  Later stage analytics
  Google analytics
  A/B testing. Multivariate testing. Conversion funnels.
10. Fail fast
  If things go wrong, Fail fast
  Smart teams adapt and change
  Build a good team
