Слайд 1The Minimum Lovable Product
(forget MVP)
Слайд 2A can of cat food is a Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
when you are starving
Слайд 3But it’s highly unsatisfying and unlikely to generate a loyal following
(of humans)
Слайд 4That’s one of the problems of the MVP approach. It strives
for ‘barely enough’ and never great
Слайд 5It results in products that mostly work but never delight
Слайд 6Definition:
The MVP is a new product with just the necessary features
to be deployed, but no more
Слайд 7But will that make customers love you?
Слайд 8Growth comes from long-term customer happiness
Слайд 9And long-term customer happiness comes when customers adore your product and
want you to succeed
Слайд 10What would it take for customers to love you—not tolerate you?
Слайд 11What would it take to create a Minimum Lovable Product (MLP)?
Слайд 12While the true adoption of the MVP is a strategic approach
to getting product out the door…
Слайд 13…when applied, can yield to unsatisfactory products
Слайд 14Rather than asking what do customers really want, or what would
delight them
Слайд 15The conversation always returns to what’s the minimum viable product and
when can we get it to market
Слайд 16The problem is that the two major principles driving the MVP
are flawed
Слайд 18The MVP never reduces waste because it never delivers what the
customer really wants
Слайд 192: The MVP accelerates time to market
Слайд 20The MVP may very well get you something to market first
but even in an emerging market you will not be a serious contender
Слайд 21Helpdesks before Zendesk
Tablets before iPads
Electric cars before Tesla
CRM tools before Salesforce
There
were …
Слайд 22Chasing the MVP forces you to sprint faster and faster chasing
fool’s gold
Слайд 23Assuming you want to start thinking about creating love and others
are willing to give you a chance …
Слайд 24Here are a few ways to determine if you have succeeded
in identifying a Minimum Lovable Product
Слайд 25Find the big idea first
(The more of these characteristics you can
check off for your idea, the more lovable your product will be)
Слайд 26At least one person tells you it’s never been done
Слайд 27Customers visibly smile when you describe it to them
Слайд 28Someone swears when he hears the idea (in delight or disgust)
Слайд 29You dream of using it and all of the features you
could add
Слайд 30Only your CTO or top architects think it’s possible
Слайд 31People start contacting you to learn about what you are building
Слайд 32The top industry analysts are not writing about it
