What is Product/Market Fit?
@seanellis

@seanellis
Product/Market Fit is Single Most Important
Factor for Sustainable Growth
@seanellis
Early Feedback Drives PM Fit
• Validate problem is worth solving
• Understand current solution
• Partner on building solution
• Talk to prospective customers every day
@seanellis
Validating P/M Fit Growth Threshold
How would you feel if you could no longer use
this product?
a) Very disappointed (40%+)
b) Somewhat disappointed
c) Not disappointed
d) N/A – I no longer use your product
@seanellis
Iterate on “Must Have” feedback
• How are they using the product?
• What is the key benefit?
• Why did they seek your solution?
• What alternatives did they consider?
@seanellis
Case Study: Weak to Strong PMF in 2 Weeks
• Surveyed 100s of early users: 7% “very
disappointed” without…
• Updated messaging and onboarding to highlight
“must have” benefit and use case.
• Two weeks later 40% would be “very
disappointed” without.
