How to Diagnose Product-Market Fit Using Exposure Lead Rate
Crack the Code on Product-Market Fit—Before You Waste Another Dollar
Uncover whether your offer truly resonates using Exposure-to-Lead Rate—your fastest path to diagnosing product-market fit.
The Funnel Metric Founders Fear But Can’t Ignore
🔬 Most Founders are Blind to This Metric
You know if you’re getting meetings.
You know if you’re making sales.
But do you know how many people SAW your message and said nothing?
That’s the hidden leak. The silent killer. The graveyard of momentum.
And the only way to expose it?
Measure Exposure Lead Rate.
✅ What is Exposure Lead Rate (ELR)?
It’s the most brutally honest metric in marketing.
Exposure Lead Rate = (Number of leads / Number of exposures) x 100
In plain English:
You reach 1,000 people via email, LinkedIn, or ads
100 open or view the message
10 become leads (they reply, click, engage)
Your ELR is 10%
If 0 people respond? ELR is 0%.
That means your message failed. Period.
No guessing. No sugar-coating. Just truth.
⚖️ How It Connects to Product-Market Fit
Exposure Lead Rate is the fastest way to diagnose if your N, T, P, M, A variables are aligned:
| Letter | Variable | Question |
|---|---|---|
| N | Niche | Are we targeting a group with an urgent problem? |
| T | Transformation | Does our promise feel emotionally and economically real? |
| P | Price | Is the price matched to perceived value? |
| M | Mechanism | Do they understand how it works and believe it will? |
| A | Access Channel | Can we reach them in a way that gets attention? |
ELR is the symptom checker.
If it’s low, one of those 5 is broken.
If it’s high, you’re on the right track.
🧡 Healthy ELR Benchmarks (Cold Traffic)
1% ELR = Minimum baseline. You’re barely resonating.
3–5% ELR = You’ve got some real signal. Test price next.
5–10% ELR = Strong fit. Scale it.
10%+ ELR = Jackpot. Stop iterating, start closing.
If you’re under 1%? Your market, message, or medium is misaligned.
🔢 Real-World Example: Keyura Cloud
Niche: UK-based logistics companies, \$10M–$50M revenue
Transformation: Save 15 hours/week by automating shipment tracking
Mechanism: Custom-branded portal + mobile app
Access: Cold LinkedIn and email outreach
We reached 4,200+ contacts in 90 days.
ELR: 5.78%
Booked: 25 demos
Closed: 1 client for $5,000
Conclusion: Good message. Decent fit. But not enough consistent closes to confirm scalable PMF yet.
🔍 How to Use ELR to Diagnose PMF
Run this process:
Send message to 1,000+ people in your target niche
Track opens (email or profile views)
Track leads (clicks, replies, opt-ins, calls)
Calculate ELR = Leads / Exposures
Now ask:
Is ELR > 3%? You have signal
Is ELR < 1%? Rework your sales argument (usually N or T is off)
Are demos closing? If not, the P or M isn’t working
