3. For a Tech/online Startup - Validate with Pre-Revenue Metrics If people won’t commit time or money upfront, they probably won’t later. Look for: - Pre-orders or Letters of Intent (LOIs): Can you get commitments (even non-binding)? - Waitlist sign-ups: A high opt-in rate signals demand. -Pilots or partnerships: Partner with a small group of users to test your solution in exchange for feedback. Example:Dropbox validated demand with a simple explainer video that drove 75,000 sign-ups overnight—before the product existed. 4. Analyze the Market—and Your Edge Even if the problem is real, ask: - Is the market growing? Use tools like Statista, Crunchbase, or industry reports. - Who are the power users? Start niche. Calm started as a meditation app for hardcore biohackers before going mainstream.
