Startup Basics Day 2: IDEA GENERATING AND VALIDATING Welcome back to the Startup Knowledge Series! Yesterday we talked about what a startup is, and today, weโre gonna dive into the next big thingโcoming up with startup ideas and figuring out if they actually make sense. 1. HOW TO COME UP WITH STARTUP IDEAS Where Do Ideas Come From? Solve Daily Problems Think about stuff that annoys you or people around you. Whatโs broken? Whatโs frustrating? If you can fix that, youโve got an idea. Use Your Skills Youโre good at something, right? Maybe you can use that skill to create something useful or cool for others. Follow Trends Trends are like wavesโride them early. Look at whatโs happening in tech, culture, or industries youโre interested in. Check Out Competitors See whatโs already out there and think: โHow can I do this better or differently?โ ASK PEOPLE Talk to friends, family, or random strangers. Whatโs something they really wish existed? Tricks for Coming Up With Ideas Painstorming : Sit down, grab a notebook, and list all the problems you can think of in a specific area (like health, education, or travel). SCAMPER Technique: Take an existing product and think about how to improve itโmake it cheaper, faster, or just more fun! 2. HOW TO CHECK IF YOUR IDEA IS ACTUALLY GOOD Having an idea is great, but does it really solve a problem? Will people actually care? Hereโs what to do: Step 1: Understand the Problem What EXACTLY are you solving? Is it a real problem, or just something you think is cool? Step 2: Look at the Market Who Needs It? Be specific about who youโre targetingโage, habits, location, all that stuff. Is There Demand? Use Google, Reddit, or even Instagram to see if people are already looking for solutions like yours. What Are Competitors Doing? Check out their websites, prices, and reviews. Where are they failing? Step 3: Test It Talk to Real People Ask them about the problem and your idea. Do they even care? Would they PAY for it? Make a Simple Website Create a page explaining your idea, and see if people sign up or click โbuy.โ Build a Super Basic Prototype Just create the bare minimum of your product and see how people use it. 3. Real-Life Examples : Dropbox Drew Houston made a short video explaining Dropbox, and people LOVED it. Thatโs how he proved there was a demand. Airbnb It started with air mattresses in a living roomโyeah, really. They figured out people wanted cheap and unique places to stay. Now youโve got some ideas and you know how to check if theyโre worth pursuing. Tomorrow, weโre gonna talk about turning those ideas into something real with an MVP (Minimum Viable Product). Itโs not as scary as it sounds, promise! Catch you tomorrow for Day 3: Building Your Startup MVP!

Share your ideas with people no matter how worse the idea is. Once you initiate the conversation,once you start talking about the ideas you have inside you then you will grow differently. Not all the ideas lead to a successful product or startup. W
