How to Launch a Million-Dollar Business this Weekend w/Noah Kagan

[Andy Black]

Okay but the point is I should have their money before start creating product. This is real validation (you, gurus, say this).

How can I achieve this if people are not willing to spend money for presaling especially in my country ?

Business is a series of figuring stuff out.

In some cases it's normal to pay afterwards, like paying a plumber after they've fixed a leaking toilet.

In others cases it's normal to pay beforehand, like ordering products off Amazon.

What folks are saying is you need people to give you money at some point to validate you're solving a problem people are willing to give you money for.
