You know, there exists a technique that makes "get something in for the next release" obsolete.
Basically: have the marketing and sales people sell and market the thing your engineers wrote last week, not the thing you hope they will write next week.
- matwood 14y agoThat works once you have discovered your customers and market fit. Until then, you need to sell first, then build. An acquaintance of mine built her company by selling her idea all over town. She got a few local businesses to sign on, and told them it would be a month of set up time. Over the course of a month she got the business setup, hired employees, bought computers, etc... 5 years of hard work later she sold the business and is currently vacationing at some random place in the world.
