Five steps to make Product-Market Fit less mysterious

One of the things that bothered me for years was the lack of clarity around Product-Market Fit. So far all the explanations are a posteriori - you can only observe or measure them. E.g. &quot;You&#x27;ve found PMF when you sell it faster than you can make it&quot;, or &quot;You can measure PMF by asking your users if they&#x27;d be sad if the product is taken away from them&quot;.<p>Can&#x27;t we systematically get to it step by step instead of observing a big black box?<p>Last week, one model crystallized in my mind: Product Market Fit consists of 5 &quot;fits&quot; under the surface, each of which can be measured separately, which I summarized in the Twitter thread.<p>Would like to hear your opinion on if this makes sense to you.
