THE LANGUAGE OF INNOVATION IS WRONG The innovation consultants and coaches are using the wrong frameworks in trying to help companies become more innovative. The key to innovation is "opportunity," not "problem."*

*
SIZING YOUR MARKET OPPORTUNITY Investors want to hear that you understand who your target customers are. Focus on target customers, not on total market.*

STOP THE MADNESS! NO MORE TAMS A curse has spread through the startup ecosystem. It is the curse of insanely distorted TAMs, SAMs and SOMs. Focus on Market Opportunity,not Market Size.
