Step #4: Roll the Dice

Step #5: Don't worry be CRAPPY

- The consumer will tell you more than you could ever anticipate.
Step #6: Polarize People
- If you try to hit everyone . . .you won't reach anyone.
- Scion xB: It is for a very specific target audience.
- If you create something great . .. you will create controversy!!
- You don't want people to be indiferent to your stuff.
Step #7: Let 100 Flowers Blossom
- An unintended audience might just start using your "product"!
- "Take the members" (people that come) . . .no matter why they come.
- Take your best shot . . .see who's using it . .. make it better
- If people don't get it in the first 15 minutes . . .they will never get it!
Step #8: Church Baby Church
- Keep it "evolving"
- Once it ships . . .listen to the people (before then . . don't listen to people)
Step #9: Niche thy Selves
- (chart) Unique (x – axis) – Value (y axis)

Step #11: Don't let the bozos grind you down
- People will try to discourage you . . ."it can't be done".
- The dangerous BOZO is rich – powerful – slick . . .have an appearance of having it all together . . .successful . . .smart. Don't listen to him!!
- BOZOSITY is just like the FLU. Build up your resistance.
