Hi! I want to share my ideas!
LPO – limited product offering; startupLPO – limited product offering with an indication that this company is a startup.
That differs drastically from ICO, IPO and DAICO. However, there can be some similarities regarding campaigning itself and presentation of information about LPO/SLPO.
The goal of LPO/SLPO - during the campaign, the selling of product/software is limited to a certain number and some special offers are valid (for ex. limited number of licenses with lowest price and duration period of 3 years). Successful sales during the campaign require not only discount prices, but additional options and privileges for first clients as well.
Entering the LPO/SLPO requires: website, lightpaper, roadmap, FAQ, information about developing team, feedback/hotline during campaign, announcements and previews posting in different threads and media resources.
LPO/SLPO should be conducted when product is ready or, at least, it can partially work and has its core declared productive capabilities. After that, the product can be updated and new capacities can be added.
Your duties and responsibilities in respect of clients: reimbursement should be guaranteed and conducted, in case your product does not meet client’s requirements. The exact period for reimbursement should be set and reported to clients before sales start. Seek to make as much for your first clients as possible and fulfil their wishes to the full extent.
LPO/SLPO can attract capital and help startup abandon venture investments. You can also consider conduction of couple of rounds.
LPO/SLPO can be helpful for the following projects:
- Software development (software, cloud, analytics)
- Game development (sale of a game, game elements)
- other areas where LPO/SLPO idea can be implemented
------
“Sell your product before official release date”.
I’ve been cherishing this idea for a long time, but couldn’t gather my thoughts.Now I suggest discussing the future of LPO/SLPO. I believe, that with proper price/sales positioning we can make money from the very first day of our product!
