Curious for thoughts: How do you balance delivering fast vs. delivering right? I’ve been feeling the pressure to ship MVPs faster than I’m comfortable with, and I’m worried it’s going to hurt the user experience long-term. Do you ever fight for “slow down to speed up”? How do you frame that argument with stakeholders?

Money. Show an estimate of how many customers will stop using it, go to a competitor, of never adopt it. The motivation for speed is money. But if speed costs more money than it generates, it's not worth it.

If we regard in June, we project $xx million by year end. If we release in July, we project 10% more ARR due to faster adoption curve.

Well said

Totally relate. I’ve started using real examples where rushing hurt metrics like retention or support tickets. Sometimes framing it as “risk mitigation” gets leadership to listen — no one wants to launch a feature that backfires and needs a rework.

It's refreshing to see a product manager post this.

I think the whole industry needs to get out of this MVP mindset. I prefer MGP (minimum good product). I'm fed up of building shit software that users hate. MVP's rarely get the further attention they need after initial deployment.

Dear All Fisbowls,

I have a query. Request all of yours suggestion and if you have done something similar to this please share.

You have resigned and have offer in hand suppose 15 fixed.
Meanwhile you get another offer but they will give around 17 fixed.
I am thinking to quote my in hand offer as 17 fixed with changes in it and share it with them.
So that they can give me around 20 fixed.
Request to share honest detail here.
