How to Reduce Costs in Product Development Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Product development often runs over budget. Here are some steps to reduce costs: Start with good planning and define the goals clearly. Many projects launch with unreasonable expectations. Track the progress using metrics to know how you are doing.\xa0 Make sure the team is up to the tasks at hand. Identify the skills needed for the project and match them to the team you are proposing to hire. Build communication into the process using collaboration tools. Setup communication channels including regular status reports, code reviews, and documentation deadlines. Define communication as a part of everyone\u2019s job. Test the software as you develop it. Some groups run daily builds from the get-go. Start with the core features and work out from there to the ancillary ones. Focus on the minimum viable product for the first version. Simple processes can help you bring your product to market on time and under budget. \xa0 Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let\u2019s go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: \xa0 Check out our other podcasts here: \xa0 For Investors check out: \xa0 For Startups check out: \xa0 For eGuides check out: \xa0 For upcoming Events, check out \xa0\xa0 For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group\xa0\xa0\xa0 Please , share, and leave a review.
