Defining the MVP to test

CHOOSING WHAT TO PROTOTYPE

Today you presented your new service. But how do you know if it really solves people’s problems in real life? You test it. Today we learn how to identify the most critical part of the project and how to test it in few days.

Design Experiments Track Pivots Clear all post-its from this area after the experiment is completed. Move your Riskiest Assumption, Method, & Minimum Success Criterion stickies into either invalidated or validated depending on the result. Stack them with the Riskiest Assumption on top.

Today’s Excercise

Defining the MVP to test

STEP 1 Write this 3 point down on a post it. Your hypothesis should be summarized in just 3 words. Write in ALL CAPS on a sticky note. Customer Hypothesis - These are your personas. These are set now and can’t be changed currently. Problem Hypothesis - This is the painpoint or problem you decided to fix. This will likely not change, but you might chose to solve another painpoint if your experiment fails. Solution Hypothesisvv - These is how you imagined to solve the problems of people. This is the part that you have to test.

STEP 2 Write your core assumptions. Which assumptions did you make while designing your new service? Is the user interested in the new service? Will the user perform a certain action? Will the user be more engaged? Will the user pay for it?

Defining the MVP to test

STEP 3 A. Chose the Riskiest Assumption One of the the Core Assumptions with the highest level of uncertainty that if invalidated breaks the service. B. Decide how to test your assumptions What is the MVP needed to validate your assumption? Concierge, Wizard of Oz, or a more simple Pitch with a landing page to collect emails or “pre-orders” C. Decide what is Minimum Success Criterion A prediction that if unmet would lead to invalidation.
