Why Idea Validation Matters
Before spending months building a product, smart founders validate their assumptions. This guide walks you through a proven 7-day framework.
Day 1: Define Your Hypothesis
Write down the core problem you are solving, who has it, and how you solve it differently.
Day 2-3: Talk to Potential Customers
Interview at least 10 people who fit your target audience. Ask about their pain points, not your solution.
Day 4-5: Build a Landing Page
Create a simple page explaining your value proposition and measure sign-up interest.
Day 6: Run a Small Ad Campaign
Spend $50-100 on ads to drive traffic and see if strangers care.
Day 7: Analyze and Decide
Look at the data. High interest means proceed. Low interest means pivot or rethink.
