Background, Ash's design decisions, etc. http://www.ashmaurya.com/2012/02/why-lean-canvas/
He thinks about them (and validates them) in this order (order updated over time)
-
Market: Customer Segments (Market Segment): Who are the customers/users of this system? Can they be further segmented? (He makes a separate Canvas for each target segment.)
-
Unique Value Proposition: Tag-Line, Positioning Statement, Elevator Pitch: what Bad-Ass results will the customer get with your product?
-
Problem: 3 top problems you're addressing: barriers to achieving the outcome. (Problem Interview)
-
Product's Solution: Minimum Viable Product feature-set
-
Product: Key Activity: user actions that drive revenue.
-
Market: free and paid Sales Channel-s to reach people in your segment - see Start Small, Stay Small (Content Marketing)?
-
Cost Structure: fixed and variable costs
-
Revenue Model: Revenue Stream-s, Lifetime Value, Gross Margin, Break Even point, etc.
-
Unfair Advantage (cannot be copied or bought) ("moat"): you might not ever have one.
