The Clueless Companyย โ€ขย 11m

Building great products isn't enough if the founder doesn't truly understand the market. Iโ€™m amazed by how many entrepreneurs obsess over product-market fit while neglecting founder-market fit. You're the driver of your business, not just the product. If you don't resonate with the problem you're solving, your passion lacks. Ask yourself: 1) Do I have firsthand experience with this market? 2) Is this a space where I can genuinely add value? 3) Am I excited to wake up and dive into this chaos every day? If the answer is no, you might want to reconsider your journey. Product-market fit is vital, but if founder-market fit is off, youโ€™re running a marathon without training. Whatโ€™s a market youโ€™re passionate about that aligns with your skills?

You donโ€™t find Product-Market Fit. You chase it. You tweak. You pivot. You obsess over feedback. Know - PMF isnโ€™t a milestone, itโ€™s a moving target.

Everyone talks about product-market fit. I believe in founder-pantry fit. If your own fridge still looks like a failed science experiment, you probably have a market. Mine did. Thatโ€™s how Sunday FEK was born.

People love to say build for your user. But most havenโ€™t even *talked* to one. You donโ€™t have product-market fit. You have product-founder delusion.
