Startup Enthusiasts Insights
Introduction
Every startup begins with a vision. The Value Proposition Canvas helps refine this vision into a clear value proposition
by focusing on three key elements:
- Jobs to Be Done: What does your product help customers achieve?
- Pain Relievers: What problems does it solve?
- Gain Creators: What benefits does it deliver?
- Jobs to Be Done
Think of your product as a tool to achieve specific outcomes. Use the Job Story Format:
● When [situation],
● I want to [task],
● So that [outcome].
Example: When I work on a startup idea, I want quick validation so that I focus on what’s worth pursuing. - Pain Relievers
Identify and prioritize customer pain points, like:
● High costs
● Wasted time
● Frustration
Focus on solving severe, frequent pains for better impact. - Gain Creators
Highlight benefits like efficiency, revenue growth, or enjoyment. These create additional value for your customers.
