What exactly do you want to do and why?
- wjnc 10y agoLet others build an MVP without technical skills. How do I break up plans and requirements in bits, so that the chances of success of the contractors rises? How to select contractors? Should I define a stack, or let contractors decoder? Etc. These are obv. the questions OP answers, but as GP points out you need a lot more information to assess the risks in such steps. I wouldn't want to have the next post "How I blew 10K and got nothing in return".
- brianwawok 10y agoSo it's hard. I see people say things like "advertise the product and get a mailing list of people interested, 100k signups mean it's a go", but that has never impressed me that much. If 1/20 MVPs prove to gain traction, and MVPs cost 10k to outsource, you are looking at spending 200k to find something that sticks. I think the top thing is to get the scope down. Make it a mVP not a MVP. Not sure there is a single universal answer. I usually suggest you learn to code so you can do MVP level work for free, but not all people like that answer.
