Validating Market Fit in order to Scale for Success

Bridging from Ideation to Realization

Taking a startup from an idea to market is an intricate journey. We walk with you through the MVP iterations necessary to arrive at product & brand market-fit.

At OSD, we transition from light-testing and visualization into honing a scalable, market-ready product and brand. Our approach is about validation and evolution in real-world pilots.

How we work

Validation is crucial. It's where most startups fail.

We take the visualizations from the Discovery phase, build various light MVP versions, and then conduct focused testing in a targeted marketplace. Our goal? Achieve both product-market-fit and brand-market-fit before investing in a pilot product launch.

Our process is designed to be rigorous but efficient, ensuring that each iteration brings us closer to a market-ready product.

From Concepts to Pilot

Transforming Concepts

1

We take the visualizations and prototypes created in the Discovery Phase and convert them to working products, reduced to the necessary feature set. 

2

We then prepare a research plan to test this initial product and brand in the market with a specific sample set of future potential customers. 

Product-Market-Fit

3

We test our initial product and brand with this initial sample set, get feedback, learn, refine and repeat.

Once we arrive at a brand and product solution that resonates well, then it's time to build an MVP for a pilot launch.

Collaboratively, we design the roadmap for cyclical product development and enhancements.

Long-Term Design Partnership
