Today's economy is led by those
who
innovate
continuously – create
new solutions, technologies,
products, and services – faster
than their competitors.

Speed to
market (or time to market) is how
quickly your business can go from
conceiving a new product to getting it
to end customers.
Being – and/or being perceived
as
– the first to market brings
about huge competitive
advantages. |
|
| |
Innovative market pioneers
create new market niches or even
Blue Oceans and harvest huge
benefits of being the first and
facing no direct competitors.

One minute
can decide the outcome of the battle,
one hour – the outcome of the campaign. |

Development velocity is extremely
important. Adhere to core principles and processes. |

Being a little ahead of
your opponent, often provides greater advantage than superior numbers or
greater resources. |

Example: Google
Google is the Internet’s number
one search engine today. What is
the reason for their remarkable
success? It’s beta testing and
market learning. They launched a
less than perfect service into
the market place to get market
feedback. Feedback is the answer
to dominating a market. It also
makes great business sense.
Other search engine companies
were trying to perfect a product
by themselves separate from
their target market as Google
was continuously and rapidly
upgrading their original beta
version in close cooperation
with customers. They knew that
the target market never lies.
