A Marketing Nightmare...

So, my Facebook Ad account got blocked by mistake and it's been a few months since the review has been pending. I tried posting tid-bits of value in Facebook groups posts, but that has not been working well.

Without Facebook and IH, what is the best way to validate a SaaS idea?

  1. 1

    a) Find out where your customers are

    b) Go to those channels (I have a list on my ZeroToUsers product)

    It's impossible to answer your question without knowing more about your product.

  2. 1

    Buy a new chrome book. Create a new ad account.
    Had a similar situation when I ran ads after 6 months.

    But to answer your question:
    Depends on what you mean by "validate".
    Depending on The service your SaaS provides, you can post something to Fiverr and see if people want to employ you. Send them a loom video after showing them that you use your tool to make it easier.

    1. 1

      Great tips. The Fiverr thing is genius, never even occurred to me to leverage other platforms like that. That is some out of the box thinking!!

      1. 1

        You gotta go deep into the box. That's where the real tips are! But it also depends on which box you're in. If you stay in your box, you're missing out. Step into your customer's box. Feel out what they are looking for, where they look for it and what they do when they find it.
