Filter Signals Non-Technical Founders Keep Ignoring

Five signals non-technical founders rationalize away.

Signal: "My Network Will Buy"

They will not. Demand written paid-pilot offers.

Signal: Reachability Is "They Are on LinkedIn"

That is presence, not reach. Score by warm meetings booked this month.

Signal: "My Co-Founder Loves It"

Not a buyer. Your co-founder is biased. Find a non-co-founder reviewer.

Signal: Adjacent Spend Is Zero

You are educating a market. Strong signal to kill or postpone.

Signal: You Re-Filter Every Few Days

That is procrastination. Pick. Run conversations. Then re-filter only after data.
