Test before you build

Testing Business Ideas: The Ultimate Validation Experiments Library 📌 Here's your ultimate validation experiments library: 1. Validation Experiments ↳ Test assumptions before you build ↳ Save time, money, and heartache 2. Market Engagement ↳ Get real feedback from real people ↳ Understand your audience before launch 3. Minimal Products ↳ Build just enough to test your concept ↳ Iterate based on user feedback 4. Feasibility Prototypes ↳ Prove it can be done ↳ Technical validation is crucial 5. User Prototypes ↳ Put it in front of potential customers ↳ Watch how they interact with your idea 6. Experiments in Production ↳ Test in the real world ↳ Gather data from actual usage 7. Recommended Tools ↳ Leverage the right tech for testing ↳ Work smarter, not harder Remember: Ideas are cheap. Execution is everything. But smart execution starts with validation. 💡 Don't waste months building something nobody wants. Test, learn, adapt. Rinse and repeat. That's how you build a business that lasts.

The Power of Asking the Right Questions in Tech In technology, solutions often start with the right questions. Whether you're debugging a system, designing a product, or exploring a new concept, the questions you ask shape the outcomes you achieve. Here’s how I approach questioning in my tech journey: 1. Start with 'Why' – Understanding the purpose behind a task ensures the solution aligns with the bigger picture. 2. Explore 'What If' – Asking hypothetical questions fosters creativity and opens up new possibilities. 3. Focus on Clarity – Clear, concise questions save time and lead to more actionable answers. In a world full of information, asking the right questions is often more powerful than knowing the answers. What’s a question that has sparked innovation in your work? Let’s discuss! #CriticalThinking #InnovationInTech #ProblemSolving #GrowthMindset #TechInsights #ContinuousLearning

🧠 Problem Solving is Key to Innovation! In today’s fast-paced tech world, creative problem solving is what drives innovation. Whether you're troubleshooting code or tackling complex business challenges, remember that every problem is an opportunity in disguise. #ProblemSolving #TechSolutions #Innovate #ThinkOutsideTheBox #ChallengesToOpportunities 🧩💡🚀

Most entrepreneurs fall into the trap of building products nobody wants. Driven by confirmation bias, they pour their time, resources, and energy into creating something they believe people need. I’ve fallen into this trap myself — spending countless hours and resources on things I thought customers needed, only to realize I'd built just a vitamin, instead of a painkiller. To succeed, it’s essential to be fast, agile, and lean—but just as importantly, to be scientific in your approach: 1. Develop a hypothesis 2. Devise experiments 3. Build, launch, and test 4. Objectively assess the results 5. Learn and go again Huge thanks to Chris Tottman for sharing the comprehensive validation experiments library #startups #MVP #Experiments #entrepreneurship #cheatsheet

This is foundational! I love how this is broken down so that laypeople can wrap their head around it. A lot of us in the product world take for granted that things like experimentation and idea validation are common knowledge, but that's a bad assumption. This cheat sheet is a great resource to make sure your key stakeholders are in the same page.
