よくある質問
How do I demonstrate founder-market fit?
Concretely: years inside the problem, customers who already follow you, proprietary insight competitors lack, or shipped work in the space.
Can founder-market fit be built?
Partly; months of intense customer immersion and shipped experiments can substitute for years of tenure, if the learning shows in the pitch.
