Most tech startups get their go-to-market strategy backward. They obsess over the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) while ignoring the single most critical factor for revenue scaling: the Minimum Viable Category (MVC). A brilliant product without a clear category is a solution in search of a problem, destined for failure like Segway. The key isn't to be the best in a crowded market but to be the only one in a market you design.

You'll get the exact implementation strategy for realigning your sales, marketing, and product teams to build and own a new market, turning your company from another competitor into the definitive solution.
