My take on the Lean Startup Model. (companyfactory.com)

I thought this post made some interesting and valid points. Mainly, don't drink the koolaid without thinking through the best strategy for your particular business/

Seems to miss the point of what a Lean Startup is.

> So why of all the important things in your life that you’re doing would you want to present to the world only part of your company?

Because you might be wrong, and building the wrong thing to a high level of polish = failing slow.

> To customers and investors, if it doesn’t fit their need, they move on, you rarely get a second chance.

The number of people who see your initial MVP will be minuscule compared to the number of potential customers. You don't need to get the same customers to come back; you just need to get customers.

Also, forgive the ad hominem, but this poster appears to be leaning on his cachet as an angel investor to persuade.

However, the links under Our Companies lead to a line of text and a GoDaddy placeholder.

Slightly less than a minimum viable product, unless you're talking about the blog post.
