An MVP should be a learning tool to test assumptions and validate demand.Common mistakes in building an MVP include overinvestment in features, falling in love with an idea, and lack of clear success metrics.The primary goal of an MVP is to inform rather than impress users with perfection.It's crucial to focus on solving a real, urgent problem that users care about.Measurable learning goals and customer feedback are essential for a successful MVP.Avoid scaling prematurely before validating demand to focus on learning and understanding users.Engage in customer conversations to understand why users behave the way they do.Customer feedback should guide MVP iterations to build features that address actual needs.MVPs are experiments, not launches for hyper growth, and should prioritize speed and learning.The MVP is the start of the learning process towards product-market fit with minimal waste.
