DESCRIPTION

One of the concepts talked about a lot when discussing Lean Startups is that of an MVP or Minimally Viable Product. After having too many entrepreneurs present to me Minimally Crappy Products, I've renamed these Minimally Awesome Products. However, the core concept remains the same. Building the least amount of product possible (in an awesome way) that delivers the maximum amount of validated learning.
