Great question.
For our team, we say yes to whatever solves the biggest pain, for most of our users.
We discover this by reaching out to customers, and doing a lot of listening. We're trying to answer two questions:
1) What is your biggest pain in your daily work?
2) What is your biggest pain in our software?
#1 usually leads to new features.
#2 usually leads to revisions of what we have already.
- jkaljundi 13y agoThe question here is how many of the potential customers you've already reached? How do you define the target group? How do you limit it, especially in very early stages? At first, startup has 0 customers. Apple has a bit more. Both define customers differently.
- mijustin 13y agoFor new products, we try to validate the idea with at least 10 people that are wiling to pay. We start with a narrow niche (as narrow as we can make it).
