Product-Market Fit The Story of Arjun and His Startup Journey Arjun was a young entrepreneur who had a brilliant idea for a fitness app, FitHub, which provided AI-generated personalized workout routines. He spent months building the app, adding features like a calorie tracker, virtual workout guides, and social sharing. When Arjun launched his app, he expected instant success. But despite all the effort, the downloads were low, and users didn't stay for long. Frustrated, Arjun decided to visit his mentor, Priya, a successful entrepreneur. Priya asked, "Arjun, what problem does your app solve for your users?" Arjun replied, "It helps people get fit." Priya smiled and said, "That's too broad. You need to focus on solving a specific problem for a specific audience. Without that, you don't have Product-Market Fit." She explained that Product-Market Fit happens when your product satisfies the needs of a well-defined group of customers. To find it, Arjun needed to: Identify a specific audience: Narrow down his target market. Understand their pain points: Talk to potential users to learn their struggles. Tailor the solution: Adjust the app to meet the needs of that audience. Taking Priya's advice, Arjun decided to focus on busy working professionals who struggled to find time for fitness. He conducted surveys and found that they needed quick, no-equipment workouts and easy meal-planning suggestions. Arjun revamped FitHub, removing unnecessary features and simplifying the interface. Within six months, the app became a hit among office-goers, and the reviews praised its practicality. Arjun had achieved Product-Market Fit. Key Takeaways Product-Market Fit is crucial: It's the foundation for scaling your business. Focus on a specific audience: Understand their problems deeply. Iterate and improve: Be ready to change your product based on feedback. Follow Our Medium blog for Finance and Business insights like this: https://medium.com/@FoundrBite

All are concerned about product development, but none about product sales. In Western Market the founders works on pre sales just by creating a video render of the product and test the product-market-fit. Anyone who knows about pre sales text me.
