Topic 2.1 Going to Market
Learning Goals
Construct low-fidelity prototypes to visualize solutions and validate hypotheses regarding desirability and feasibility within the limits of affordable loss.
Launch a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) focused on a single use case to prioritize speed over sophistication and validate the Problem-Solution Fit.
Implement a Go-To-Market strategy focused on visibility, specific customer benefits, and retention to track key metrics and reach Product-Market Fit.
Topic 2.1 Going to Market
Prototyping & Testing
Entering the "Go-To-Market" phase often feels like a race, but this video argues for a counter-intuitive approach: slowing down to speed up. We explore the critical role of prototyping—not as a technical challenge, but as a method to "fail fast" and avoid costly mistakes within the limits of affordable loss.

Zooming on the MVP
Once you have explored the status quo and tested low-fidelity prototypes, the next critical step is launching the Minimum Viable Product (MVP). This video defines the MVP not as an unfinished or poor-quality product, but as a deliberate strategic choice to focus on a single use case—like building a bicycle to start deliveries immediately rather than waiting to build a van.

No strategic plan can resist the reality of actual contact with customers, making it imperative to launch as fast as possible

Acquiring customers
Having validated the Problem-Solution Fit with an MVP, the next challenge is shifting from ad-hoc sales to systematic growth. This video outlines the five critical success factors required to prospect, convert, and retain early adopters in sufficient numbers to track key metrics like Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) and Lifetime Value (LTV). We explore why you must double down on visibility through "Inbound Marketing," why "Learning Launches" are safer than big reveals, and why "babysitting" your first clients is essential to reaching the next major milestone: Product-Market Fit.
