What are the early signs of product/market fit for Pry?
Andy Su
Co-founder & CEO at Pry
I still don't know if we have product/market fit, according to the Andreessen blog. Reporters aren't banging on my door trying to knock it down. They're not calling me and stalking me yet. So I don't know if we've got product/market fit. But we do have 360 customers, and that makes me feel like we've got something real here. We’re solving a real problem. And that number -- when I say it now, it sounds amazing, but I was proud to have 20. I was really excited when we got our first 20, then 50, then 100, then 150, and now we're at 360. So that's a good indication we're onto something.
Maybe a little bit earlier on, in roughly September 2020, we found our first really happy customer. He set up everything by himself and asked us really good questions. He just absolutely loved our product. He wanted to pay more than we were charging, and he sent it to his buddies all over the place. And I distinctly remember that guy, Chris. He really made our day because before then, we were just building something that we didn’t know if people wanted for more than a year. So when you get your first really happy customer, I think that's when you really can tell that you might have something.
