🔍 Step-by-Step Guide to Validate a Startup Idea: Solve a Real Problem Ask yourself: Is this a pain point, or just a trend? ✅ Talk to 10 potential users before building anything. Start Small, Launch Fast Build an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) or even a Google Form. ✅ Don’t aim for perfect—aim for feedback. Test Willingness to Pay Likes and follows are good, but would they pay for it? ✅ Run pre-orders, pilot programs, or charge early users. Differentiate Yourself If the idea exists, ask: What can I do 10x better, cheaper, or faster? Be Data-Driven Use real insights, not assumptions. ✅ Run surveys, test ads, or build landing pages to measure interest. 🧠 Summary with Real Example: 📌 Example – Ankur Warikoo's Online Course Business Instead of jumping into the crowded online course market blindly, Ankur Warikoo validated his idea by: Identifying a real problem: Young people lacked clarity in personal finance, productivity, and career planning. Launching fast: Created a simple MVP (video course) using Kajabi with minimal setup. Testing willingness to pay: Priced early courses affordably and got thousands of paid users. Differentiating: Added value through personal storytelling, not just information. Using data: Improved future content based on feedback, email metrics, and surveys. 🎯 Result: Over ₹3 Crore in revenue within 18 months — built without any funding, just pure validation and execution.

Very informative.. The first point of talking to real users and customers is the most important one. Rest all will follow anyhow.

love the “don’t aim for perfect” part. too many first-time founders spend 6 months perfecting something no one even asked for.
