The Perfect Product Challenge

One of the major challenges with a web application is the allure of making it perfect. Who doesn’t want the perfect product? Perfect is the enemy of good. A good product gets out the door and is put in the hands of prospects. A perfect product doesn’t exist, and while it is being built, time, energy, and especially money is being consumed.

My recommendation is to get the product into the hands of prospects as quickly as possible. And when I say prospects, I’m thinking about random ones, not just warm intros. Warm intros are definitely worthwhile and should be used, but also make things too easy that an objective buyer might not provide.

I’ve seen too many startups never fully get a product out the door. Don’t join the crowd! Launch early and often.
