By evaluating feasibility and market demand before initiating the development process, they can establish a strong foundation for their ventures. While non-technical startup owners may not be expected to have extensive knowledge of software technology, it is crucial for them to articulate their business model, comprehend their users, and envision the product or service they intend to offer to the market. Regrettably, not all startup owners delve deeply into these critical aspects before embarking on their development journeys.<\/p>\n<p>In this article series, we would like to draw lessons from our experiences, we will provide actionable guidance to help startup owners overcome these challenges and effectively drive their businesses forward.<br \/>This is the first article in the series, it examines common pitfalls encountered by my clients, accompanied by real-world case studies.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1cd711d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1cd711d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.23.0 - 05-08-2024 *\/\n.elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}<\/style><h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Common Pitfalls<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-16406cc elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"16406cc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Most often, founders face challenges such as difficulties in communicating with software development teams, ending up with an unsuitable product, running out of budget, or experiencing delays in release.

I believe that the owner, along with their team, should immerse themselves in understanding their idea and clearly envision the product they want to create. This enables effective communication with investors and the software development team, presenting a coherent and persuasive concept.<br \/>Case study: As a consultant for Niche Social Network app development, I received numerous inquiries about the project&#8217;s development costs, including one from a client in Boston, USA. When I asked for a description of their software, they simply said they wanted a Facebook-like platform with subscription-based revenue instead of advertising. When I inquired about what differentiated their site from Facebook, they struggled to provide an answer. It seemed they had only noticed the attractive features of our product, similar to Facebook, without recognizing the uniqueness and distinctiveness of their own product. It&#8217;s challenging for any developer to take on a project with such a simplistic description as &#8220;Facebook-like\u201d.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e54efa2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e54efa2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">2.

They are unaware of how to generate revenue, what expenses to consider, or the key success factors required for their business. Rushing into software development too early leads to mistakes, resulting in an unsuitable product or budget depletion before the product is launched.<br \/>Case study: I had an extremely generous client from New York with whom I developed a good friendship. He had a strong background in software development and had plenty of ideas for online business ventures. As the project manager, I formed a team of four developers and one quality control specialist. I praised the clarity of his software description, which provided detailed instructions for our work. Whenever there were doubts, he would promptly answer with mockups to illustrate his ideas. This was excellent for ensuring that our team delivered what the client needed. However, once the project was launched, he surprised me with a question: &#8220;Can you suggest ways to monetize this product?\u201d. It seemed he also lacked a clear purpose for developing that application. Eventually, the project was put on hold because he didn&#8217;t have a clear direction afterward.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd5e60a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fd5e60a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">3.

Many customers want everything in the first release. They want the initial release to include all the features that their customers might need, including a mobile app and web application platform, multilingual support, and more. While I support thinking big, it&#8217;s crucial to start small and take it step by step. A feature-rich product requires substantial resources to develop, along with significant costs. Not every startup has abundant resources to start with a large-scale product. Moreover, the development time can be extensive, and you might miss out on golden opportunities. Are you willing to put all your eggs in one basket? And what if you discover that most of the features don&#8217;t align with your target customers at the end?<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c968c5e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c968c5e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">4.

While an external development provider supports your business execution, it can also lead to conflicts. Common conflicts revolve around cost disputes, scope of work, and timelines. These issues frequently cause delays in launching by months compared to the initial plan or significant cost overruns. The root cause is the lack of long-term vision regarding software development, resulting in loose contracts and confrontational approaches rather than collaboration.<br \/>Case study: I once failed in a project to develop an online cruise booking application in Norway. We worked together using the Offshore Development Center (ODC) model, and at that time, I was just starting my project management career. We signed a 6-month contract to develop this application. Within two weeks, the team scaled up to 9 members enthusiastically working on the project. The customer continuously provided requirements, and we worked diligently to develop them. Due to the time zone difference, we often had online meetings in the evening after work. It wasn&#8217;t uncommon to answer questions or fix issues for the customer at 10 PM. With that work pace, the customer expected a fast delivery timeline, while our team needed time to organize work and make improvements. This resulted in dissatisfaction. Looking back, the lack of a common set of rules in project management and development methods was the cause. We lacked common guidelines for communication, management tools, reporting, and production planning to meet expectations and shared goals from the start. Later on, when applying those improvements, my projects gradually improved, and customers became more satisfied.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-da4f5b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"da4f5b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Overcoming Common Pitfalls<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6249d86 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6249d86\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>There may also be other reasons, but those are the four common ones I have seen among the clients I have worked with.
