Lean Startup Sydney

Join this group if you want to save time and money launching any idea you can think of. Period.

Lean Startup is something I came to after fluffing about with my startup and doing all I could NOT to talk to customers.

Instead, I spent money building something I thought they'd like. They didn't. I scratched my head and wondered how the hell I could have a successful startup without wasting more money.

At the Silicon Beach Meetup, people I spoke to about the problem kept telling me to read Steve Blank's 'Four Steps to the Epiphany' and Eric Ries' 'Lean Startup' blog.

Curious by nature, I eventually delved into the world of 'Lean Startup' and it made utter and total sense. The penny dropped and I've been telling people about it and practising it ever since.

May 2011: I've just attended the 'Startup Lessons Learned' seminar in San Francisco and it's time Sydney had a meetup group of it's own. I'll flesh this out some more as I'm on the iPad in SF, but I've got heaps of contacts and knowledge, so we're gonna have fun! Cheers Mark
