    Entrepreneurs and designers are caught in an analysis-paralysis trap when starting or growing their businesses. Unsurprisingly, founders want the perfect product or service and brand, but it's important to remember that perfection is optional for startup success. Rather than striving for perfection, entrepreneurs should focus on creating a Minimum Viable Brand (MVB) and building on it as they progress. MVBs require far less effort than a fully realized version, so entrepreneurs can confidently launch without the extra pressure to be perfect right out of the gate. It also ensures that evolution is part of the plan, giving plenty of room to incorporate intricate changes. As daunting as launching a new product or service can seem, developing an MVB can ease some of that stress while ensuring your idea is headed in the right direction! I discuss: Examples of successful entrepreneurs and designers who have evolved their offerings over time, such as Amy Landino, Chris Ducker, and Lee Jackson. Twitter and Pinterest are two examples of companies that initially had different focuses but shifted their offering over time to great success.  Thanks for listening!
