The first hint lies in its name; this is a product development model, not a marketing model, not a sales hiring model, not a customer acquisition model, not even a financing model (and we’ll also find that in most cases it’s even a poor model to use to develop a product.) release of the product. All of this is usually a bad idea.

But by taking advantage of open source, agile software, and iterative development, lean startups can operate with much less waste. I am heavily indebted to earlier theorists, and highly recommend the books Lean Thinking and Lean Software Development. The lean startup is an application of Lean Thinking. No more, no less.

Not even if its generating revenue. Beyond Apple, we can find examples of the Steve Jobs character at Toyota, in the form of the Chief Engineer.

Continuous deployment is another such technique, one with a unique power to change development team dynamics for the better. One is used by engineers to refer to the process of getting code fully integrated into production. In traditional batch-and-queue development, these two concepts are linked. Why does it work?

You cant make these global efficiency improvements until you get clear about the goal of your development process.

Go ahead and laugh, but over 95% of Moon River Software’s revenue this year has been from consulting services. The software I sell has made up less than 5% of total revenue in the past 12 months. Heck, some people just enjoy managing the engineering effort, which is a tiny part of building a successful company.
