#1
Why should someone care?
#2
Define what you will do,
and what you will NOT!
#3
  Build not what you want,
but what the customer needs!
#4
Tackle the hard problems first!
#5
Get feedback on your product
   before you have built it!
#6
Simplicity matters!
#7
Launch fast, iterate!
#8
 Listen to everyone,
but do your own thing!
#9
Marketing is harder than you
            think!
# 10
You become what you measure!
Thank You
