### Need a community platform that allows you to get started quickly, then adapt as your community grows? Experience Breezio
In his bestselling book, *The Lean Startup*, Eric Ries makes the case for getting new products into customers’ hands faster. He advocates for a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) approach, starting lean instead of investing time and money perfecting a product that may end up being of little or no interest to customers. Ries’s methodology starts with launching the MVP and using it to learn what the market actually wants, then continually iterating based on that learned intelligence. This “build-measure-learn” feedback loop saves both time and money, enabling lean startups to get a product to market quickly and customers to help shape the solution that meets their actual needs, rather than needs founders think they have.
