MVP first makes sense because it helps you validate your idea, avoid wasting money on hype, and gather real user feedback before scaling. It ensures you're building something people actually want so your later marketing hits harder and converts bette

I totally agree that building an MVP is a great way to validate an idea with minimal investment. But here's the thing: even the best MVP won't get validated if nobody knows it exists. How will users discover and interact with it without at least some form of marketing or outreach?

An MVP alone isn't enough. Even the best product needs distribution to be validated. That’s why the real answer isn’t MVP vs marketing, it’s: Build a simple MVP and market it just enough to get real users. You don’t need a full-scale campaign - just: A landing page A few posts on Reddit, X, or Product Hunt Reaching out to niche communities or early adopters Think of it as “traction-first” marketing: just enough visibility to test the MVP’s value. If no one bites, maybe the idea or targeting needs tweaking not necessarily the product itself. So yes, MVP is first but marketing must come immediately after, even in lightweight form.

That depends on your idea. So the first step to start is always getting an idea. After getting that idea, you can just post about it once on Medial/Other platform and if the feedback is good, then 1) If it's easy to make the mvp, Build the MVP first and then collect feedback from actual users or 2) Collect feedback from the users and then make the mvp. And collecting the feedback is type of marketing only.
