Hello Rodinhooders
Lean Startup Machine – Bengaluru is an intensive three-day workshop which aims at helping entrepreneurs define their product by adopting the Lean Startup principles and leveraging tools such as the Experimentation Board.
LSM – Bengaluru is proud to be partnering with The Rodinhoods. We are grateful to The Rodinhoods for the support they have extended, to help this event reach entrepreneurs.
Hence we are happy to run a contest to give away a free ticket 🙂 Keep reading.
It is a widely accepted figure that 9/10 products fail [highly debatable, for those in the mood, rephrase it as – a large number of products fail] and one of the main contributors to this failure is “lack of customer validation“.
Most startups have gone into the “Just do it” mode, where they build products without understanding if they are building a product that their customer needs.
The Lean Startup principles teaches the entrepreneurs to understand the needs of the customer through a series of experiments(versus the customer wants). The Build-Measure-Learn loop propagated by Lean Startup principles encourages an entrepreneur to build a Minimum Viable Product and gain customer insights using which the product can be refined.
Attend the workshop and learn how to leverage the Lean Startup principles to validate your idea/product.
A few topics covered in the workshop are:
- Introduction to The Lean Startup Principles
- Using the Experimentation Board
- How to define a customer/problem/solution hypothesis
- How to design an experiment
- How to speak to a customer
- How to collect metrics
- When to Pivot/Persevere
- Concierge MVP
So as promised(earlier in the post), here is how you could win a free ticket to the highly educating hands on workshop.
Guess who told the underlying statement.
If you are not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late.
One lucky winner among all the right answers will get a free ticket to LSM – Bengaluru!
The contest ends at 23:59:59 on 25/05/2014
