Eric Ries' Lean Startup is a seminal read for all people building great products/services. This book is based on five years of observation of companies of all sizes applying Lean Startup, including GE, Dropbox, and the Federal Government. Eric notes on his blog that those who preorders "will grant you access to The Leader's Guide community, an exclusive netw… See more

I enjoyed his previous book! Anyone pre-read this one? Is it like an appendix with extra case studies?
Eric Ries@ericries
@orliesaurus not yet / it's an entirely new book
Eric Ries@ericries
Hey everyone, thanks for checking out my new book. This is the fist time I'm offering it for pre-order, it comes out in October. I'm actually still working on the manuscript as I type this. You may not realize this but the ProductHunt community played a big role in helping my Kickstarter campaign that was the research platform for this book (we built a min… See more

Hey @ericries! First of all, allow me to express my gratitude for 'The Lean Startup' book you wrote. It is indeed tremendously helpful, it's gotten me to think differently, so, thanks a lot! Now, 2 years later (since I last read your book) I'm really happy to see that you're working on a new book! Now my question is, how can I pre-order it considering the… See more

@ericries "if you hate big companies so much, why are you trying to start a new one?" It's a really good question! What is the answer? Don't Fuck Up the Culture?
Ryan Hoover@rrhoover · Founder, Product Hunt
Welcome back, @ericries! Dog fooding question... 😊 How have you used lean startup practices in the making of this book?
Eric Ries@ericries
@rrhoover it actually dates all the way back to The Leader's Guide Kickstarter (which, remember, wasn't and still isn't for sale in stores). I conceived of that as an MVP to test two things: 1. Was there an audience who would buy this book? 2. How did people respond to the ideas when presented in book form? I learned a ton from both, plus a lot I didn't ev… See more

Eric - congrats, this has been long awaited! I just posted about it on the Lean Startup Circle publication on Medium. Let me know if you're willing to do a guest blog post for the publication to talk about the book. I'd also be glad to set up a talk at one of the Lean Startup Circle meetups in San Francisco if you're up for it. You have my email. Thanks!
Eric Ries@ericries
@javidjamae awesome - Thank you! I'll be in touch
Sunil Neurgaonkar@sneurgaonkar · Genius-Nerd-Entrepreneur-Philanthropist
Just today while chatting with a buddy of mine about me starting something, he suggested me to read this book. He told me this will teach me all the basics to get the startup started. So then I googled it and decided to purchase it. Now 5 hours later, I see this here! Waiting desperately to read this piece. Would love to share a review once I complete. @er… See more

@sneurgaonkar thank you - and your buddy

@davidjbland 🙏🙏🙏 and me from you, too
Kristian Kabuay@baybayin · Artist @ Kabuay.com
Hi Eric, Looking forward to this. The Lean Startup helped my advocacy of keeping an endangered writing system from the Philippines from going extinct! It specifically helped me streamline my culture based business that funds everything from books, apps, websites, lectures and a future documentary. Salamat (Thank you)
Kelly Kuhn-Wallace@kkdub · Coach: Grow Your Biz w/o the Crazy
After Lean Startup, you'd expect Eric to earn an A+ in custdev, right? Yet I'm 😮 at how relevant and necessary The Startup Way's conversation promises to be. --> In 2016,60% of my trial coaching calls for founders chose "my company is growing, but it has changed in ways that I don't like." <-- Growth changes everything. Hoping that Eric will help ide… See more

Amazing. Really looking forward to this book! Question: In what other aspect of your life have you found the lean startup methodologies most useful?
Congrats @ericries! Really excited to read The Startup Way. Thank u 🙏
A.Fairiz@cleavatron · Founder, Recite Lab
Does it ship worldwide? If yes, I need to pre-order this. (please say yes, @ericries).
Eric Ries@ericries
@cleavatron yes! But only for a limited time. Pretty soon you'll be able to get the book via Amazon or regional retailers and then we will take this pre-order site down
A.Fairiz@cleavatron · Founder, Recite Lab
@ericries Thank you, Sir! Pre-ordered it. Waiting for October in full anticipation. I've learned so much from your Lean Startup book. Thank you for that one.
Kirill Soloviev@double_u_d · founder @Nimi (test brand names globally
Eric - it's amazing to know you're finally releasing another book! Would love to read that and put the knowledge to good use. However, I don't way to pay for international shipping. Can I pre-order an eBook instead?
Riz Ainuddin@riz_ainuddin
Excited to get hold of this book @ericries ! I have an issue with your pre-order page with Shopify. My card was decline on screen after submission for payment and I got notification from my bank that the card is charged. No support email or link of the page :( Hope this message reaches you.
