When you have a great idea, your first instinct is to make everything perfect before showing it to the world. Flawless interface, the ideal name, a well-designed logo, an ultra-scalable backend… And before you know it, three months have passed, zero users, zero feedback, and a lot of built-up anxiety.
You don’t need all that to get started.
Launching fast doesn’t mean launching something poorly made. It means releasing the essentials to validate if your idea makes sense. It’s about leaving perfectionism aside and focusing on what really matters: people using your product.
You’ll only find out:
If people want what you’re building
If they’re willing to pay for it
What they really value
Where your idea needs adjustments
…after it’s out in the world.
MVP is more than just a buzzword
The MVP (Minimum Viable Product) isn’t just a theoretical concept. It’s a practical way to launch your idea without months of development.
It’s a lean but functional version that answers the question:“Is it worth continuing to invest in this?”
And the answer comes from real users, not assumptions.
When I created Invdual, I wanted everything to be perfect. But I decided to launch in 24 hours with the basics: a homepage, sign-up, and a simple link-creation CRUD. The result? People using it, valuable feedback, new ideas popping up, and, most importantly, renewed motivation to keep going.
Even though the launch wasn’t a huge success, it was enough to get some users. Since then, I’ve been collecting feedback, and with users on the platform, I started adding new features like blogging, analytics, and more.
If I had waited until it was “ready,” I’d probably still be tweaking details today without knowing if anyone would care.
And even with just the minimum product launched, I was able to build out the features I wanted—with real users already onboard.
You can plan for months, but you’ll only be sure when your product is out in the world.
So here’s the simple advice:Launch fast. Watch. Learn. Improve.
The sooner you enter the real feedback cycle, the more likely you are to turn a good idea into a product that truly solves problems.
