GTM Intern

Learn how early-stage products find their market.

Get close to the journey from product idea to launch. As a GTM Intern at Day0 Labs, you’ll learn how we understand audiences, position products, plan launches, test ideas, and use real feedback to improve how products reach people.

Day0 Labs builds products from zero, which means go-to-market thinking starts long before a public launch.

As a GTM Intern, you’ll learn how product, research, marketing, community, and business strategy come together.

You may work around products such as CreatorBAE, Unfold Win, and Nuan while learning how an early-stage California technology company takes a product from early validation to market.

This is a learning-focused internship. You’ll participate alongside the team with mentorship, guidance, and regular feedback.

• Positioning & messaging
• Audience research
• Launch strategy
• Growth insights

• What does this product do?
• Who is it for?
• Why should they care?
• How should we talk about it?

You’ll explore value propositions, messaging, product narratives, audience-specific communication, and positioning.

Learn how we identify and understand potential users.

You’ll explore user behaviors, motivations, needs, pain points, adoption barriers, and early-user profiles.

• Competitors
• Adjacent products
• Emerging categories
• Industry trends
• Customer behavior
• Changing technology

The goal is not simply to create competitor lists, but to understand what the market is telling us.

• Beta programs
• Early-access launches
• Focus groups
• Community introductions
• Launch messaging
• Launch events
• Feedback collection
• Post-launch learning
• Product journeys
