Fastest Way To Validate A Business Idea

I've got a few examples on my site GrowthHunt.co:

1. Validate an idea without a product #1: 400 signups and 5 initial sales of a product that is yet to exist

2. Validate an idea without a product #2: using just a website and a checkout page + $50 Bing ads

3. 11 days MVP: Getting to $2K MRR in 30 days

I've included the full article links above.

If you are interested in 3 minutes summary of the each case study instead of a 10-15 full article read, you can find these on GrowthHunt.co again.

Cheers and all the best!

Hey @FroMo - considering you're pre-product, it seems like the best validation approach you could have would be to confirm that your idea is solving a high priority problem for your target customer segment.

Here's a really quick and easy-to-implement guide to Customer Problem Stack Ranking, an idea validation technique that I found from Shreyas Doshi on the Stripe product team.

I don’t, but I learned a couple of things I’m applying right now from the following books:

• The Mom Test
• Business Model Generation
• Disciplined entrepreneurship

If you only had to pick one book to read from the list above, pick The Mom Test.
