If the Internet allows you to target everyone simultaneously, isn’t that the starting point of any product launch? Nope!
That’s the most expensive mistake most startups make when launching a new product.
Indeed, you don’t need to target everyone, but you need to be very specific about who you want to target.
This way, you can have a first set of 5-10 customers, which is good enough for a first iteration!
That’s right, and this is what a minimum viable audience stands for.
The minimum viable audience (MVA) represents the smallest possible audience to sustain your business as you start it from a microniche (the smallest market subset).
The main aspect of the MVA is to zoom into existing markets to find those people whose needs are unmet by existing players.
