so to get straight to it, I have this idea for an educational product and after talking to someone with 8 years in the industry, I was told there’s definitely a place for my product.

The thing is, I know even a minimum viable product could take thousands of dollars and at least a year in a half of time to produce. Before I do that, I need to know if there’s an actual consumer want for what I’m offering so I can use this focus group to test my product.

My question is how exactly would I go about finding this group, and if I go the email list route, what is a good number of signups to justify creating the product?
