“The only thing that matters is product-market fit”
MARKET >> Product / Team
Metrics and validation will tell you if there is a market
26. *MONETIZATION PRINCIPLES
●In freemium, a very small percent of people pay (under 5%)
●Of these, a smaller % contribute a disproportionate amount of revenue
●They are usually happy to spend more, not less
●Do:
●Segment
●Uncap user spending potential
●Provide ways to spend a LOT in a short amount of time

27. *GAMES VS APPS
●Apps: linear consumption
*
●Games: can be exponential consumption
