I took this same approach and from about ~50 things, 5 made enough money to make it time well spent overall.

They were tiny like the projects listed here, so it's possible it could work out for the author, and I'm still sticking to the same approach now.

Launch something quick with little self-criticism, then double down on anything that seems to have traction.



This is what MVP actually is.


MVP as in minimally viable product?


Yep, that's how I'm reading it at least.


Yep


So 10% worked - is that not about normal for business?


It's normal for boom or burst startups. It's way bellow normal for small business.

But well, it's a perfectly fine ratio here.


Even on a small business/startup average youd maybe see 50 businesses start, and 5 succeed
