Idea or Timing or Execution ?

I believe execution is over others. You can fail with an excellent idea at a really right time with poor execution.

definitely timing, execution, and idea last (any idea has a super high chance to change / pivot overtime)

Timing > Execution > Idea

Timing is still number one, then Execution then Idea. Imagine you built youtube in 2000s, it was a great idea but it won't succeed cause internet speed wasn't reliable. Imagine you're building a streaming service just to stream yourself but because the timing and execution was great it went viral and you found a good business model behind it and it became twitch.

I would say: Idea, timing and execution last :)

Idea and timing are tied at the top. A lot of great ideas have come to fruition despite founders fumbling around and generally being incompetent. Bad ideas are always doomed from day one.

The most critical component for startup/product success is execution. Having a fantastic idea or ideal timing may offer you an initial advantage, but it will not lead to long-term success if you do not execute it efficiently. A good concept, experienced staff, and efficient processes are required to turn an idea into a product that satisfies client needs and offers value. Of course, having a strong idea and timeliness are vital, but they aren't enough if it's not executed properly.

Idea and execution is the key

My view: Idea Execution Timing Correct me if I am wrong please 🙂

If you have bad timing, nothing can help you, even if you pour millions into it. If the idea is bad, no one will use it, but it still can lead to something. I have seen quite a few startups getting somewhere, even with bad execution. Conclusion: Wrong timing means death!

I would rate timing on top followed by execution imho the idea has no value without getting these two right. to that extend, my views differ with those of @shubham_pratap

I would say 20% Idea, 20% Timing, 60% Execution. Usually execution is the hardest to nail down imo. There are plenty of good ideas out there for which the timing is good too.

The idea of the product Planning it accordingly Executing it following the planned map Time doesn't matter when all small things are lined up in order. As we say "No perfect timing for a good start"

Hum, this is an interesting question. I did mention in one of the comments that without a good team success is hard to achieve; but if ranking just the aspects mentioned in the question, I would probably go with: Execution Timing Idea [the market is oversaturated with various ideas, sometimes overlapping, but that is execution and timing that help some succeed and others go in vain imho]

I guess: 1. Execution 2. Timing 3. Idea An amazing idea with bad execution and timing worths nothing, but with great execution, you can correct bad timing.

i believe it should be a healthy mix of all these but if to rank... idea timing execution launching as soon as you're somewhat ready and then refining works better

Execute ideas at the right time

As a marketer's POV: Execution cus even a WATER can be sold w/o a bright idea or timing, Grammarly is still used without new features, AI products with no code, low-code, or heavily coded (not sure if that's the correct term) are used depending on its function and deliverability. Timing cus some B2B is not ready, sacrificing their old routines and employees Idea as long as it brings value to one person

All of these words are so crucial for success. Only their symbiosis can show us good traction. Anyway, you can capture the market either by better execution (better marketing, better sales, better UX, e.g.) or by disrupting (an idea that builds a strong competitive advantage from nothing literally). Suppose you build a coffee shop or a simple building company – Execution in the first place. You should be better in any of the streams above. If you build an innovative product, you should figure out how to disrupt competitors. It's mostly about Ideas. Timing is also essential. Ofc without him, nothing will happen.
