Sell before you make it.Hey,
I had a question around getting proof of concept for my idea for improving smoke alarms. What's the quickest way to ask the marketplace if my idea has a need in the marketplace?
I always say that and people don’t like it.
Make your website. List all the features, improvements, etc.
Add a buy now button. If somebody buys, refund immediately telling them you’re out of stock.
I know it’s a bit more complicated with smoke alarms because of regulations, etc, that’s why it’s imperative to get proof of concept.
Alternatively do the same thing but on a crowdfunding page.
