Feature Scope

02Problem

Broad feature set with no defined revenue core or ICP. No monetization clarity.

Fresha is a vertical SaaS platform for beauty and wellness businesses. The product had a broad feature set with no defined revenue core. Multiple features were developed in parallel without a clear monetization path or defined ICP.

03Change

  1. Identified the revenue core: appointment booking with integrated payments
  2. Narrowed ICP to single-location beauty businesses with 3-10 staff
  3. Built pricing-first approach where the MVP was defined by what users would pay for
  4. Delivered the core product to the target segment before expanding features

04Outcome

The MVP was defined by the revenue it could earn, not by its feature count. When the product is defined by what one segment will pay for rather than what many segments might use, time-to-revenue compresses and product focus emerges.
