Episode Summary

Startup Tip #10: Ship fast & frequently https://baremetrics.com

Episode Notes

• The first version of Baremetrics was built in 8 days.
• But that was spread across 30 days of juggling client work, two other SaaS products and 10 days of international travel with no access to really even think about Baremetrics.
• So, you have no excuse for taking months (or even years) to ship.
• You're procrastinating.
• But even after you get your initial product out the door, you keep shipping features fast and frequently.
• Ship basic, MVP-versions of features to find out how (or even if) users want to use the feature, and then iterate on top of it.
• And if it’s not working?
• KILL IT!
• If it doesn’t have a noticeable effect on revenue, it doesn’t stick around.
• Prove the idea as best you can, ship it as fast as you can and kill it as intelligently as you can.
• Rinse. Repeat.
• Ship fast & frequently.
