Every great story has a protagonist.
13
33% of reward points go unused
“ “I don’t have enough points for cool rewards”a
“ “I never think to use my rewards points”a
“ “Its hard to use my reward points”a
14
“We need an App that allows people to buy cool stuff instantly with their
rewards ”
15
“I would use that”
We showed a bunch of people, and they thought it was cool too.
“There should totally be an app for that!”
“That looks cool”
“When get IGet it?!”

So, we built an app for that...

Some things we learned along the way:
23
Keep teams small.
24
Establish that your intent is to FAILas quickly and as cheaply as possible.
25
Get out of the building
26
Avoid over promoting your early work.
27
Negotiate business terms for failure. Not success.
28
Act like you are on a start-up budget.

Start with a customer insight Keep your team small Invite Failure Be your own Guerilla research firm Don’t over promote your early work Act like you are on a Start-up budget
Think Big. Build Small. Scale Fast.
