Barebones chassis, what MVPs actually are.

Abstract

The product and technology industry remains abuzz with trendy acronyms and words with the most popular one being MVP which stands for Minimal Viable Product it was meant to be a guiding compass for introducing a product to the consumer quickly but over time a simple validation tool has turned into a complex maze of moving parts which has somewhat rendered the word Minimal in MVPs obsolete.
In this talk, we will look at how can we return to the core fundamentals where products start as barebones chassis.

Description

Many ideas for solutions to problems start with the best intentions and game plan to get it out there to prospective users quickly, get feedback and improve then possibly get a financial return for the effort & value created.

But as typical for most humans, solving problems for everyday issues can get complicated fast because of how our brains tend to kick into overdrive with things we are passionate about and we can stall progress as a result of this and not get anything done at all.

To combat this issue the MVP product development framework to help move that mental load quickly and get the job done then get feedback for improvements - rinse and repeat but that same simple hack has now itself been made complex by humans. In this talk, we will talk about product ideation, and MVPs and then finally go over how to peel the layers of a product down to its barebones chassis, where its MVP lies.

How to nuke a product; Sunsetting.

Abstract

Modern product development processes have become very sophisticated in the last couple of years and a lot of effort has been put into making it easier to launch & onboard users and get needs solved but not much is said about what to do when a product’s lifecycle ends. This talk is all about what to do when a product is at the end of its life - a sunset.

Description

Launching a product and getting users is often the main conversation on the internet for builders and product people and it’s often a core focus for most individuals but for every happy path, there is an unhappy path. In the case of a product launch, it’s a product decline or end of life.

Sunsetting is the process of phasing out and retiring a product or software. This is an important part of the product lifecycle and all builders need to understand how it works and the steps involved to ensure both the product team and the users have the best experience.

In this talk, we will go over the strategies and processes involved in a product sunset that all product builders should know and how to pick the sunsetting steps relevant to their product and its user base.

Steps involved in a product sunset
