I see a lot of people on here (especially indiehackers) talk about how many startups they had that failed.

d because they were poorly marketed, or they didn’t market at all.

So, that brings me to the question - what is the TRUE indicator that your startup has “failed”?

    When your target market has made it very clear to you there’s no situation in which they’d pay for your services, or when the requirements to make it something they’d pay for go beyond what you’re willing to do.

    Too many founders never do the research on whether people actually want the product on offer, and only figure out once they’ve plowed thousands and half a year of their life into something.
