What is Lean Startup?


    A scientific approach to
      building a business
in conditions of high uncertainty
Why Use Lean Startup?
1.   Learn Effectively: Validated Learning
2.   Launch Sooner: Minimum Viable Product
3.   Innovate Faster: Continuous Innovation
4.   Eliminate Waste: Minimum Viable Product
5.   Reduce Risk: Validated Learning, Continuous
     Innovation, Minimum Viable Product
Validated Learning
Old Way                  New Way
   Do something          Make a hypothesis
   Debrief               Create experiment
   Invent reasons for    Run experiment
    results               Analyze results
   “Lesson Learned”      Hypothesis either
    (but not really)       validated or not
                          Lesson only learned
                           once validated
Example: What do customers value?
 Idea: WordPress plugin that tells writers who read
 their articles, not just who clicked on the headline.

Hypothesized Values       Potential Headlines To Test
1. Measure engagement     1. Write Engaging Articles
2. Improve accuracy       2. Are Your Articles Engaging?
3. Optimize marketing     3. Does Anyone Read Your Blog?
4. Charge more
Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
       The simplest product or service
      that provides value to a customer


Old Way                 New Way
 Research the market    Build a minimum
 Build the entire        product or service
  product or service     Attempt to sell it
 Launch                 Iterate based on what
 Find out if you can     you learned
  sell it
Example: MVP
Continuous Innovation
