About Me
Life’s too short to build something
nobody wants.
“If you can’t describe what you are doing
as a process, you don’t know what you
are doing.”
!

- Edward Deming
Epiphany 1:

Epiphany 2:

Everyone is in the manufacturing
business.

Happy customers get you paid and doing this
repeatedly and efficiently is the goal of every
business.

The Customer Factory
Lean Thinking:
!

Continuous improvement through
elimination of waste in the customer
value stream.
“Organizations live or die as systems
not as processes.”
!

- Goldratt, The Goal
Theory of Constraints:
!

Every business is a system of
interconnected processes with a
single constraint.
Lean tells you what and how to improve.
TOC tells you where to improve.
Right Action, Right Time:
!

At any given point, there are only a few
key actions that matter.
!

Focus on those and ignore the rest.
The most important thing
scientists do.
(Hint: It’s not running experiments)
First and foremost, scientists build models.
First and foremost, scientists build models.
They then run experiments to validate those
models.
Entrepreneurs need models too.
Entrepreneurs need models too.
(This idea isn’t without resistance)

Objection 2:

Customer behavior is too complex to model.

random nor senseless - they are
systematic and predictable.”

Experiment like a scientist
What is an Experiment?
01 Experiments aren’t standalone but additive.
02 Expected outcomes need to be declared

upfront.
“If you simply plan on seeing what
happens, you will always succeed at
seeing what happens.”
!

- Eric Ries, The Lean Startup
Reasonably smart people can rationalize
anything but entrepreneurs are especially
gifted at this.
!

1. They hate to be proven wrong.
!
!

1. They hate to be proven wrong.
!

2. They don’t have enough information to make
these predictions.
03 Expected outcomes need to be falsifiable.
Too Vague:
Being known as an “expert” will drive early adopters
!
Too Vague:
Being known as an “expert” will drive early adopters
!

Specific and Testable:
Blog post will drive >100 early sign-ups
Falsifiable Hypothesis

Specific Repeatable Action will drive Expected Measurable Outcome
!
!

e.g. Blog post will drive >100 early sign-ups
04 Experiments need to be time-boxed.
05 Breakthrough insights are usually hidden

within failed experiments.
A pivot not grounded in learning is a
disguised “see what sticks” strategy.
“There is no such thing as a failed
experiment- only unexpected outcomes. ”
!

- Buckminster Fuller
