6 interested parties is not yet a problem worth solving. Business model requires 80-100 strong leads.
Leaps of Faith1. Problem is active and easy to articulate.2. Lifecycle messaging solution generates interest.3. Current channels are sufficient to test PSFIT.

Run 20 problem interviews Ash Maurya 2 weeks
Run problem Interviews to test for right early adopter and problem fit.
1. Build interview script2. Prioritize a few local face-to-face interviews3. Run others online over skype/google hangout4. Interview anyone that wants to talk.
Running 20 problem interviews will validate:1. Saas companies are best early adopter segment.2. Active pain exists around customer onboarding during trials.3. Current solutions around approach doesn’t provide enough insight into
what’s going wrong.4. Monetizable pain by way of people building homegrown solutions or
paying for 3rd party analytics. Expect $24-49 price point.

Use a teaser page + blog post to drive interview leads for the USERcycle product.
1. Announce USERcycle product through a blog post2. CTA is to drive interested parties to teaser page with expectation of
being interviewed3. Use Google Analytics and Prefinery to measure conversation rate
Teaser page + blog post campaign resulted in 134 interview leads.
This number was lower than expected outcome but still enough to complete problem/solution fit stage.
An interesting number to note is the 45.6% conversion rate on the application form. The blog post drove traffic to the page but slightly less than half completed the form.
The rest were either just curious or didn’t completely read the blog post?
Continue running Problem Interviews.
Expected Blog Post Traffic: 2,000 visitorsExpected Conversion Rate: 10%
Falsifiable Hypotheses:1. Teaser page + blog post will collect 200 interview leads
