One reason I like this GIF is it's a good depiction of what traction feels like. The fish are so excited, they're literally jumping in your boat before you've even taken out your fishing rod.pic.twitter.com/xbEgF4xPyg

How do you know when you should pack it up and go find another fishing spot?
@derrickreimer has a good post on that here:https://www.derrickreimer.com/essays/2019/05/17/im-walking-away-from-the-product-i-spent-a-year-building.html …1 odpowiedź 0 podanych dalej 11 polubionychPokaż ten wątek -
It’s a good sign if you’re at a fishing spot, and you see good anglers pulling out fish.
That means with the right bait and the right skill, you can catch fish too.1 odpowiedź 0 podanych dalej 9 polubionychPokaż ten wątek -
When Airbnb showed up, hotels, hostels, and B&Bs were already fishing in those waters; they could see there was plenty of fish!
By the time ConvertKit showed up, MailChimp had already caught millions of fish. But that just meant it was a good fishing spot.3 odpowiedzi 0 podanych dalej 10 polubionychPokaż ten wątek -

ConvertKit is a good example. Airbnb reinvented their niche. Staying in someone’s spare room is very different than staying in a hotel.

The market is the same though (“travelers who want accommodation”). Airbnb didn’t invent the market, they just changed the way the job was done. I didn’t start traveling because of Airbnb, I just changed where I stay.

Yeah but at the beginning they targeted a specific part of that niche, people going to conferences who didn’t want to pay hotel prices. Yes NOW they target the same niche as hotels do, but not at the beginning.

Airbnb started as "stay on an air mattress in a stranger's house for money" if you don't call that niche, what is?

I think you’re misunderstanding my point.
The opportunity existed because all the hotel rooms were booked up.
Their history, from the beginning, is about being in the same market as hotels.pic.twitter.com/hsKF0LTukG

There is a lot of hyperbole in that statement, I’ve never seen every hotel room in NYC booked.

Hyperbole aside, if we believe their version of history, their initial target market was definitely “people who would normally book hotel rooms.”pic.twitter.com/TPBwpsammN

They may have wanted to target the hotel goers (and how they sold it to investors) but I think they found almost all their early traction with couch surfers.
