Stage 0 – Idea

The product concept begins through ideation, where you define a customer problem and a possible solution.

Ideation: “I have an idea that I would like to develop or get feedback on.” 

Stage 1 – Discovery

During discovery, you talk to potential customers to validate they really have a problem worth solving, and start working on building your initial prototype.

Discover: “I know there is a need and value proposition for my product or service.”

Stage 2 – Validation

As you move to validation, you’re building a minimum viable product and testing that on the market to see if you can make your first sale.

Validation: “I’m testing and launching my first product or service.”

Stage 3 & 4 – Efficiency & Scale

Efficiency: “I’m generating consistent revenue and am ready to scale.”

Scaling: “My sales are through the roof and I’m focused on managing growth.”
