Why Is Product/Market Fit The Wrong Goal For You?

Product/market fit is the holy grail of startups. But what if this concept is actually leading you down the wrong path?

Here’s a more practical approach to finding startup success:

  • Target specific groups of people you can actually reach instead of abstract “markets”.
  • Focus on channel/offer fit. Find one scalable acquisition channel and build an offer that converts.
  • Realize that your product is more than features. It is also pricing, guarantees, bundling and positioning.

Here’s what Trends Pro Members are talking about…



❔ Ask Yourself

How Do Small Environmental Changes Lead to Big Behavior Changes?

You might be struggling to build good habits due to a bad environment.

Change your environment and live a better life:

  • Remove negative influences from your environment instead of trying to resist them.
  • Fit good habits in your flow. If you want to exercise, find a gym literally on your way home from work.
  • Design spaces that automate good decisions for you. From smaller plates for portion control to blocked websites for productivity.
