I recently read Jason Fried’s Version 1 is for you and liked the core message of being selfish with v1s and building them for you first and the customer will come later. What really stood out to me was the final paragraph:
We don’t do MVPs here. I don’t believe in MVPs. I think they’re the lowest of the lowest bar, an insult to product development in general. What’s less inspiring than something that’s Minimally Viable? We do what I call MPV1s. Maximally Proud Version 1s. Version 1 won’t be everything to everyone, but it’ll be everything to us. Just what we need, and nothing more. And we’ll be proud of every part of it — and also what it isn’t, yet.
I really like the term MPV1. Maximum Pride. Crank it to 11.
I love hearing from readers so please feel free to reach out.
