Validating Your Startup Idea: Why You Should Do It Quickly and Cheaply
Validating your startup idea is crucial to ensure you're solving a problem that people will pay to solve. As a founder, it's important to validate your idea quickly and cheaply before fully developing a product. You can start by offering your solution as a consulting service or using existing tools to create a minimum viable version. The most important step in validation is not just asking people if they would buy but actually getting them to pay. This shows genuine interest and proves your idea addresses a real, painful problem. By validating early, you save time, money, and increase your chances of building a successful product.
