When you develop a product, if you run into the problem of having too few features, you should pause building it cause you haven't thought through.
But like most people, you dream of new killer features day and night and end up with too many of them. Unless you are working on a brand new products, you'd have bugs/enhancements to deal with.
Here's my ordered criteria for feature/bug fixing/enhancements prioritization and trade-off:
- Business/Sales/Marketing
- Does it solve customer's problems? Does it address customer's pain points? Stop dreaming of cool features that don't solve actual problems.
