So how do you reconcile his success with the lean startup, which seems to suggest the opposite?" Plus, the premise of the question misunderstands the lean startup, too.

As I wrote in Don’t Launch , it’s essential to remember that these early minimum viable product launches are not marketing launches. I won’t apologize for this aspect of the Lean Startup methodology.
