MVP(Minimum Viable Product)

Do you have an idea for a product but are not sure if you can successfully implement it or not? The majority of startups fail because the market doesn’t need them. Bringing a product to market is always a big risk. But to minimize the risk, you can first develop a minimum viable product (MVP).

To understand what customers need from your product, you should develop a minimum viable product. MVP allows you to study the situation on the market as well as its costs, also less than a full-fledged solution.

What Is An MVP

MVP is a product with just enough features to satisfy early customers and getting feedback for future product development.

The Purpose Of A Minimum Viable Product

A minimum viable product includes only essential features that will solve the customers’ problems. Everything else will be developed after reviewing the user feedback. Companies only develop MVP to verify the economic viability of the product.

MVP Goals

  1. Testing product viability at low costs.
  2. Spending less money on product development.
  3. Faster delivery of a product that solves at least one problem of a user.

Benefits Of MVP

Faster Release And Cutting The Development Costs

In MVP, you only spend time in building features that are absolutely needed which save from investing in development cost as well as beneficial as quick delivery of the product

Room For Evolution

An MVP benefits your business by providing an engine for growth. Because you can receive valuable feedback from early users and can use this feedback to update your product. 

Testing Business Concepts And Market Demand

The biggest benefit of developing an MVP is that it allows organizations to test their business concepts and ideas. MVP process to not only test the feasibility of their respective products but also to develop functionality over time based on user test data and feedback to gradually evolve towards the mature applications.

Get The Funding From The Investor

Receiving funding from the investor is to build confidence in the product and its ability to achieve the desired outcome. By representing your MVP you can easily impress the investors to invest in your product. 

How To Build An MVP

  • Figure Out, What Problem You Are Solving And For Whom

The concept of developing an MVP is quite simple. Your goal in creating an MVP is to create the smallest, fastest, and most functional version of your idea, something that can be tested quickly and easily, over and over again, until it works. Before you initiate an idea and embark upon an MVP Development process, ensure that it fulfills the target users’ needs

  • Define The User Flow

To define the main flow of users, we must first define the stages of the process. You need to look at the app from the users’ perspective. This is actually quite easy because all you need to do is explain the steps necessary to achieve the main objective of your product. As soon as all these steps of the process are defined, we can define characteristics for each stage.

  • List Out The Features

  1. Now all the features under the categories should be graded ‘must-have,’ ‘nice-to-have, and ‘don’t care.’ can story-making techniques make this process easier. You can build a matrix where you have a horizontal row that shows the main stages of the process (our user flow) and below each stage a series of features dedicated to this stage.
  2. Once you have added all the steps and features for each step, you can draw a vertical down arrow that goes from “high priority” at the top of the column to “low priority” at the bottom. Now, you’re ready to start organizing features based on priority. Move stories that are crucial up the column and other stories down. Always pay attention to the whole process.
  3. When you have prioritized all features, you can define your scope for the first version of the product as well as M.V.P can proceed to create, if you want to see how your future product will be, so you can create an M.V.P prototype first.

  • Build, Test, And Learn

When the first step of work is defined, so we move towards development, as soon as the development work is completed then we need to test it. The first testing phase is conducted by our Quality Assurance engineers. which is to enhance the quality of the product. They ensure that a product is prepared for alpha or beta testing. you can start improving your product again and then try, and learn, and build again, and try again, and learn again. 

  • Analyze Your Competitors

It is clear to say that if there is already a similar product in the market, then you must also make a competitor analysis, keep in mind if you think so, that you have no competitors in the market, your belief in the uniqueness of your product is not a sufficient reason to bring your product to the market with confidence. Competitor analysis is important no matter what the situation.
