Helping Startups & SMEs Build What’s Next | PMF & Innovation | Board Member | Top 100 Digital Shaper

The surprising thing about PMF is how emotional it is.

After working closely with dozens of startups
and speaking with hundreds more over the years,
I’ve learned that most startups don’t fail because the product is bad.

They fail because founders avoid early truth:
the awkward interviews,
the invalidated assumptions,
the ideas that feel good but aren’t actually useful.

PMF comes from listening before building.
And that’s the hardest part.

AI can generate answers.
But it can’t sit in an awkward customer meeting for you.

What’s the hardest customer truth you’ve ever uncovered? 

#productmarketfit #innovation

AI accelerates everything. SMEs must, too.

And the gap between fast learners and slow learners is growing every month.

After working with dozens of startups
and advising many SME leaders over the years,
 
I’ve seen one pattern repeat:
Startups learn fast.
 
SMEs learn slow.
And in the age of AI, learning speed is everything.

Here’s what startups do better — and where SMEs can catch up:

1️⃣ Startups test before they build.
 SMEs build before they test.

2️⃣ Startups validate with real customers early.
 SMEs validate late — after the solution already exists.

3️⃣ Startups treat ideas as hypotheses.
 SMEs treat ideas as decisions.

4️⃣ Startups kill weak ideas fast.
 SMEs defend them for months.

5️⃣ Startups iterate weekly.
 SMEs iterate quarterly.

6️⃣ Startups create a culture that encourages experimentation.
 SMEs create a culture that avoids risk.

The difference isn’t resources.
It’s mindset.

Lean PMF isn’t a startup trick —
it’s a survival skill for SMEs in an AI-driven world.

Curious:
Which of these is hardest to apply in your SME?
