Define the core set of features

Define the core set of features

The core set of features is critical to your product launch. This is often the most challenging part of product design.

  • Apply the Pareto principle: 80% of the value comes from 20% of features. Define the one job that will add the most value to your target audience.
  • Building minimum viable product (MVP): An MVP allows you to strip your product down to its core and will enable you to validate if your initial idea is good.
  • Beat the fear of getting on the market too early. You can give access to your MVP to a small group of users and track their performance.

Startups should aim to develop the first product for a small target market via a Minimum Viable Product (MVP). The object of the MVP is to get a product out there for the early adopters (called earlyvangelists here) to play with.

Minimum Viable Product

The Minimum Viable Product is the simplest, most basic form of a product or service, which can be sold in the market. This doesn't have all of the bells and whistles but has enough features to work. Basically, it is good enough but not perfect.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
