Did you know that more than 40% of digital products fail due to a lack of product-market fit? That’s why full cycle product development is so important. This is the step-by-step process of creating an original product from idea to market. This is why many technology leaders work with a professional company that deals with this area of the market. This allows the entrepreneur to develop their start-up very quickly, to deeply understand their customers, to discover new opportunities and to quickly create and validate products that solve their most critical problems, through a rigorous process of discovery and innovation. This is complemented by research and design of user experience and customer feedback and analytics. This all adds up to a product development cycle that is expected to lead to project and company success in the long run.
What do we need to do first?
The full cycle consists of four main phases that you can go through to create a new product from scratch, as well as to improve existing software on the market. At the point where the idea comes in you should already have a completed project scope, a document that reflects your idea, visualizes it and defines its technical requirements, features and success rates. In this way, you have a ready-made plan, which you merely submit to the bespoke software development service provider. After that, you need to estimate your budget for developing the idea. This usually includes both direct and indirect costs associated with the full product development cycle.
The next step – MVP
There can be no thriving digital product development without an MVP. With an approved MVP in hand, you know for sure that your idea makes sense and that this is a firm foundation. Which in turn makes your full-cycle product development investment worthwhile. A minimum viable product (MVP) is the first version of your product, presented early to customers to help you test the product with real users and get valuable feedback for further improvements or returns. The next logical step is to contact a potential MVP software development company. Normally, the company should lay the foundations for further product development.

Scaling up
Once the product hypothesis has been verified and a product-market fit has been found, it is time to scale up and build a product that can grow with users.
