Jon is busy launching our new podcast analytics feature, so this episode features Justin's talk from MicroConf 2018 in Las Vegas.

You need more than product/market fit. You need alignment between you as a founder, your market, and your product.


In this episode, you'll hear Justin's step-by-step approach for:

  1. Identifying who you are, and what you want
  2. Choosing a market
  3. Discovering what they want
  4. Shipping a (small) initial solution
