This methodology fits into our rapidly changing business scene. It eliminates costly product/service development.
Test your product or service before you launch. And count on continuous
improvement and iterative growth for a successful business. Ries first
proposed this process and it has been adopted widely. We cover it in the new
online CEO School for Women™.
