A Certain Success Product-Market Fit, as made popular by the great Sean Ellis , is a concept that revolves around a simple assumption. The assumption is that if you can create a product that fits perfectly with a specific market, then you’re onto a winner. So if, for example, your target market needs something to help them achieve A and help them solve B, then your product needs to do those things.

The most successful products aren’t always the ones that win. Often, it’s the products that are first to mind. The products that create habits. Some habits, however, are much healthier than others, so what’s the secret to designing healthy patterns of behavior?

Agile transformations are tough. That’s because wherever you start, the agile transformation creates culture clashes. Often, teams start with agile approaches. Teams discover the agile approach and practices that work for that team. Then, as the team gains experience, they refine their approach and practices. That’s the external part of what we see in an agile transformation.

Both in life and at work, we tend to come up with solutions before defining the problem they solve. From “I need to stop eating chocolate” to “let’s add Facebook Login to our online checkout”, we can’t help it. It’s natural – solutions and features are easy to imagine and talk about with other people. And coming up with a solution is a rewarding experience, it makes us feel like we have everything figured out.

Setapp provides Mac users with a way to use and discover new apps, and developers with a new way to reach customers and generate extra revenue.

Intercom’s mission is to make internet business personal. But it’s impossible to be personal when your product is broken. Uptime is critical to the success of our business, and not just because our customers are paying us, but also because we heavily dogfood our own product. If our product is down, we acutely feel our customer’s pain. Being on call out of office hours is inherently disruptive to your life.

Depending of where you live “Product manager” is not a common job and it is often confused with Project manager. [not a google search].
