    Agree. Get clients; if no one is interested, then there's no reason to spend another minute on the website.

    Staying smart without wasting time

    Personally, I read nonfiction books before bed, and during the miscellaneous waiting times throughout the day--like waiting in line at Starbucks--I'll skim articles in my Feedly feed. I'm a geek, so I follow sites that tend to post news & analysis of technology/science breakthroughs (e.g...

    Launching Info Product to overcome an anxiety

    EXECUTION 
    Great question: How to speed up validation? Don't build a product, ebook, website, etc. yet, not until you've engaged with enough people who are asking for the problem to be solved & are willing to pay for it. First, I'd recommend narrowing down your target customer from anyone who might have...

    Epilogue: The artist still hadn't made any money from his art--even though there was a willing customer.

    Do you need to keep polishing the website, or do you need to call prospective clients? Maybe fix issues A & B with the website, then start calling prospects? Will prospects realistically even look at your site?

    How do you all seek out needs?

    Really like @B. Cole's idea for how to create level area without excavation--nice shortcut/out-of-the-box thinking. Also, since you have a warehouse with excess capacity, you might brainstorm ways to maximize its value. What are the most profitable types of things you can do in a warehouse...

    Exactly--our worst fears are almost always highly improbable. Here's how to work on the (overblown) fear of talking to people: Talk to people. :) Just be genuine, curious, respectful of their time, and always looking to provide value. At this point, you're simply gathering data to determine...

    How to grow service business systematically?

    To grow your business systematically, you might want to read Jay Abraham's book "Getting everything you can out of all you've got". If you implement even 1 strategy from it, you'll be able to grow your business. For hiring, I'd suggest first--before you hire--documenting the things you do & how...

    Trying to increase art sales to help fund another business. I need some feedback?

    Given the niche market and lukewarm market response (i.e., sales) over the years, are there other factors that indicate you could realistically grow your revenue, say, by 50%-100%? If not, you might consider ceasing it as a business, and investing your energy into another endeavor that has more...

    What about talking to people who you think might be your ideal customer--before you have a prototype--and asking them about the problem & what might solve it / make it better for them?

    Hello and thank you

    INTRO 
    People of the forum tend to share generalities of their idea, rather than the exact idea. However, the more detail you share, the better the feedback you'll get. People tend to share more details on the insider section. For the idea you're considering, does it meet CENTS criteria?

    Trying to increase art sales to help fund another business. I need some feedback?

    Welcome to the tribe, Erika! A few questions: Who, specifically, are your customers--who buys from you? Why do they buy this kind of art: what problem is it solving or benefit does it provide? How can you reach more people like them, and highlight the pain solved / benefits created by having...
