    Still no change on the market. We are already in the big crash, Inflation is a catastrophe. This CPI report is a colossal failure. To bring the housing market to a halt, the FED will have to pull all the stops. The unfortunate issue is that other markets are being decimated. If you want to stay green, you have to rely on a lot of diversification. Currently up 14% and being careful. Still a better deal than leaving it in a savings or checking account yielding 0-1 percent interest

      If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to make your money work for you, prevent inflation from eroding your savings, build generational wealth, and cultivate good habits and financial knowledge, you must be in the market

Optional 5. Extra Leg: if you got $50k in friends and family round invested in you, i have the checkbook and a pen handy. LOL. Other than that, keep dreaming. P.S. Go convert your CPA's LLC stupid advise into Deleware corp, then i can open your e-mail; otherwise, it automatically all goes to junk folder and gets "deleted".

    Is showing an accurate TAM number sufficient? Or is it also important to show SAM and SOM?
    And if the market is growing fast (30-35% CAGR), should the startup show the TAM for the current year or forecast the future TAM in 5-10 years (when the exit is assumed to happen)?

    I understand that Steve and Dreamit work this way, with a TAM and go-to-market strategy, but, since I'm pitching many different investors, and most of them probably work with TAM, SAM, and SOM, what should I do? I think the TAM on this video is the SOM on others. I don't know which approach to take.

    • @molly2frodo222
      @molly2frodo222 Год назад +1

      The TAM in the video can be considered the SOM. At 00:55 he stated he is not a big fan of SAM and SOM. Based on the video what I gathered is he thinks stating the entire number of customers there are is useless. It is only valuable to state the customers you will be targeting not every possible customer that exists. Lets say for example your target market is college students. Your TAM (according to this video) would not be all college students if the college students that would interested in your product/service are medical students. Your TAM would be medical students not all college students. Hopes this helps someone better understand the video.

    This is awesome. But I have a question. In the bottom up process, how do you calculate the TAM for something as universal as WhatsApp? Imagine WhatsApp when they had launched and lets imagine that it charged $1 per user per month for the sake of this exercise. How would you calculate the number of customers at that stage? Any thoughts guys?

    Many startups have no idea how to investigate or keep tracks of their market, or even the current market state. Other create startup, work for 1 or 2 years max, pocketing half the money from investors and sales and close the company as it is in the red and walk away with few millions(I know number of people who do this every 3 years)

    Hi Kaya, How can we calculate TAM for a startup that doesn't rely on a primary price strategy but works on selling data and affiliate markets. Thanks.

    This is what I pitched with one HNI. He said my projections are low. I said this is what we'd achieve in early days and he said Fuck Off. Nice presentation to make sure startups doesn't have self fulfilling prophecy.

    I have some questions
    1 how to think the Tam evenif the cost of company’s products is not the same it’s a services product so how
    2 could I approximate the price to be a medium price?

  • @stephankochen1518
    @stephankochen1518 11 месяцев назад +1

    Now I'm even more confused. If the TAM no of customer is already broken down to your target niche and geography, what's left for the SAM and SOM breakdowns of the market?

    I imagine most people that come across this video are studying this subject, like myself, so I know I'm very much a noob and will respect any correction given, but this sounds like mashing TAM, SAM, and SOM together.
    What's confusing me is that I understand that you wouldn't set the price of your product before knowing whom your product would serve (The SOM), so I'm trying to understand why you would use TAM as specific to a company and not a market. The video states that you've got to find "Your TAM", but I understand "Your TAM" or your company's TAM as SAM. TAM is the total market, yes? And SAM is the market as it is specific to a company, with SOM being the customers that can actually be reached.
    Based on the example in the video, I understand that all companies would be the TAM, "All start-ups" would be the SAM, and "Target Customers" Would be the SOM". From there you'd figure out your pricing, correct?
    Again, I'm happy to be corrected as I'm very new to this, but using TAM as company specific instead of market specific just seems unnecessarily confusing to me.

    Hi ! Thanks for the great content, how do you consider competitors in the TAM? I am thinking for example about Kindle who gained market shares compared to hardcover books. Do you take into account customers how could switch to your product?
    Thanks !

    • @stevebarsh7727
      @stevebarsh7727 4 года назад

      SAM and SOM are fine. I often find TAM + your go-to-market strategy get's the job done very clearly.

    I have question: How is the number of users constituting the TAM calculated? Is it the number of potential users in the first year, five years or any other period? Thank you.

    Is TAM calculated on annual basis or does the TAM calculation indicate a market of 5-10 years?

    How would you go about calculating TAM if your company has non-recurring revenue (one time purchases only)
