Idea or Timing or Execution ?

My view: Idea Execution Timing Correct me if I am wrong please 🙂

I would rate timing on top followed by execution imho the idea has no value without getting these two right. to that extend, my views differ with those of @shubham_pratap

I believe execution is over others. You can fail with an excellent idea at a really right time with poor execution.

Execute ideas at the right time

In my opinion, having a great idea at the right time is crucial. Ideas could convert to nothing if the time isn't right. And then comes execution.

Of course, the most important is the idea, because without an idea, nothing happens. Then timing and execute last.

I would say: Idea, timing and execution last :)

Timing Execution Idea

As a marketer's POV: Execution cus even a WATER can be sold w/o a bright idea or timing, Grammarly is still used without new features, AI products with no code, low-code, or heavily coded (not sure if that's the correct term) are used depending on its function and deliverability. Timing cus some B2B is not ready, sacrificing their old routines and employees Idea as long as it brings value to one person

Hum, this is an interesting question. I did mention in one of the comments that without a good team success is hard to achieve; but if ranking just the aspects mentioned in the question, I would probably go with: Execution Timing Idea [the market is oversaturated with various ideas, sometimes overlapping, but that is execution and timing that help some succeed and others go in vain imho]

I guess: 1. Execution 2. Timing 3. Idea An amazing idea with bad execution and timing worths nothing, but with great execution, you can correct bad timing.

The most critical component for startup/product success is execution. Having a fantastic idea or ideal timing may offer you an initial advantage, but it will not lead to long-term success if you do not execute it efficiently. A good concept, experienced staff, and efficient processes are required to turn an idea into a product that satisfies client needs and offers value. Of course, having a strong idea and timeliness are vital, but they aren't enough if it's not executed properly.

i believe it should be a healthy mix of all these but if to rank... idea timing execution launching as soon as you're somewhat ready and then refining works better

Timing > Execution > Idea

All of the above. I know it sounds like a cop-out, but you need all three to align in order for your product to be ready. If anything I would prioritize idea and execution over timing, because I the timing should be "now" and hope that it it's right. But you never know and sitting around waiting for the right "time" is never a good approach to anything.

Timing is still number one, then Execution then Idea. Imagine you built youtube in 2000s, it was a great idea but it won't succeed cause internet speed wasn't reliable. Imagine you're building a streaming service just to stream yourself but because the timing and execution was great it went viral and you found a good business model behind it and it became twitch.

If you have bad timing, nothing can help you, even if you pour millions into it. If the idea is bad, no one will use it, but it still can lead to something. I have seen quite a few startups getting somewhere, even with bad execution. Conclusion: Wrong timing means death!

I would say 20% Idea, 20% Timing, 60% Execution. Usually execution is the hardest to nail down imo. There are plenty of good ideas out there for which the timing is good too.

If the leader has a good record on executing then lots of doors open up. People in fact go to them with ideas, because they know that the CEO will be able to come up with an execution plan. And timing is just another strategy at play. Meaning - Say an industry is not doing good, then a specialized launch for that industry might be bad timing. But the same idea launch in another industry might still be successful.
