It’s definitely positive to have a product plan. A simple differentiation is that a product plan is designed for internal use, to get the product out. Enough detail is required so that someone else can build it without you (outsourcing). Don’t get me wrong. Here are the key components of a good product plan: Detailed features.

In this context, I’m broadening the definition of partner from co-founder to “business partner.” If both of you are experts at software development, even though one loves design and the other loves coding, that still won’t get the marketing done. This is a critical element of a good relationship, but a tough one. Complementary skills.

In fact, I would broaden the definition of partner from co-founder to “business partner.” If both of you are experts at software development, even though one loves design and the other loves coding, that still won’t get the marketing done.

Outsourcing ► April (1) GoogleClick - Who owns your cash register? Outsourcing 1. Personally, I think the best products are designed, architected and built all at the same time. (As Scrappy engineers are harder to find and keep motivated than Steady engineers, so achieving this ratio is definitely a challenge.

These weaknesses can be addressed in a variety of ways, ranging from engaging part-time, outsourced help to bringing on experienced advisors to help out early in the company's life.

Given likely market changes, how will we design and build so that the systems can respond to marketplace changes? What do we build in-house or outsource? What other kinds of capabilities such as graphic design, user interaction, product manager, QA will we need? How can we phase development to balance cost, features, risk, etc?
