Leading a product team in a startup—where it’s basically you, or maybe you and one other person—is far different from leading a large product management team for a well-established company. Startup: Set ruthless priorities. When you’re a startup and you’re looking for product-market fit, you need to be ruthless.

The most common case is in startups when the practice is to build things that do not scale (see also Do Things that Don’t Scale by Paul Grahm). As a startup, you do not always have the money to build a system that will scale properly if you succeed and grow. This approach is usually good for any feature even in big enterprises.

I became a product manager because I wanted to take a more strategic role at my company. First, I did not know how to frame, develop and present product strategy in a systematic way, and second, as a startup, my company has not historically had a good track record of strategy being developed outside of senior management (read: founder).

Then 100% – a mere doubling annually in a startup ecosystem that demands a much faster target. There’s a saying that no military plan survives first contact with the enemy, and similarly — no product roadmap survives first contact with stalled growth.

In the early stages of growth, losing customers might indicate that you do not have a product-market fit. If your SaaS product caters to SMB businesses, a 3–7% monthly churn rate might be acceptable. On the other hand, if your product caters largely to enterprises, monthly churn as low as 1% might be acceptable.
