LEANTEGRA MVP
Proprietary hardware design
with a complete SW stack
LEANTEGRA Prototype

To be sold for money

Not to be sold for money
Validating one or several
technical assumptions
IoT: Typical MVP Configurations
© 2016 Leantegra Inc. All Rights Reserved. Proprietary and Confidential
Swiss Knife in a Fancy Box:
Sales Framework
Universal MVP with many claimed
features, solutions for customers
and vertical markets. Nothing works
on practice or simplistic "Hello World"
features.
Swiss Knife without Knives:
Technology Framework
Framework without customer solutions —
multiple technologies and interfaces.
Nothing useful from day #1, large
implementation efforts for customer
solutions.
Bottle Opener
The right MVP!
Solid product with a well-defined
function(s) and customer values.

Selling IoT: Pain Relievers vs Vitamins
Key Selling Points:
© 2016 Leantegra Inc. All Rights Reserved. Proprietary and Confidential
Pretty often your IoT products are just vitamins — the issue about matching problems and solutions!
Customers need "pain relievers" to their specific problems!
Most important #1: exact match between
a customer's problem and your solution
Tangible ROI
Successful case studies (with numbers)
Local competitor examples: "Neighbor has it already!"
Popularity / large market share — not for MVP,
unless you're Google or Amazon

Marketing for IoT: Go Vertical and Local!
© 2016 Leantegra Inc. All Rights Reserved. Proprietary and Confidential
IoT is complicated!
People still don't
understand what this
whole thing is about!
Mandatory: real-life
scenarios attached to
business needs
and/or people needs.
Content marketing is
underestimated —
online content sells!
Still, cold e-mails and
remote communications
from Ukraine — rarely work
for qualified prospects.
ISSUES
Regional presence and local partners are 100x times
more efficient than cold e-mailing.
Content marketing via SMM is still very important —
expect multiple leads, though many of them not qualified.
Advertise to verticals as the first priority!
