How do you validate products?
I'm an impatient person. ADHD maybe... but it goes beyond that. Sometimes I get a product idea, and I jump the gun because it feels almost physically painful to wait to validate an idea... I'd rather make a thing and have that flop than validate.
Speaking of impatience...
I dated a guy who, for whatever freaky reason, would call me while in the middle of playing video games, and sometimes I'd ask a question and he'd literally answer after minutes (I counted)... after slaying some monsters and collecting loot, I presume... it came to a point where my first question after answering his calls was always... "err... are you in the middle of a game?" That reeeeally tested me.
Anyway, I digress....
All that said... I *have* validated product ideas in the past. It's a very short list of 5 different ways.
So, let's play a game.
Guess one validation method in my list, followed by whether it's a yay method or a blah method.
Yay → as in this method tells you whether someone is actually interested in the product or not
Blah → the opposite of yay
If you get the right combo, I'll tell you the name of the book I just ordered and the one I just finished reading.
Go pikachoooo
PS: the dude called me tonight (we stay in touch) to say "what's up, haven't talked in a month!" then went quiet... 🤣
