Business Idea Validation Workbook

Business Idea Validation Workbook — Find out if people will pay — before you build.

The most expensive way to test a business idea is to build the business. This workbook gives you a cheaper way: write down the assumption that would kill the idea, talk to ten real potential customers without pitching, run a small paid test, and read the signals honestly. A fictional founder validating a tiffin-service idea is worked through the whole system, so you can see each exercise done before you do your own.

What's inside

• Validation Guide (PDF): the full system — riskiest assumption, ten customer conversations, the mom-test principle in plain words, small paid tests, an honest look at landing-page smoke tests, reading signal vs noise, and when to kill vs continue
• Validation Workbook (DOCX): every exercise as a fill-in worksheet, each with the worked tiffin-service example beside it
• Customer Interview Script & Notes (DOCX): a ready interview script with good and bad question examples, plus a repeatable notes sheet for all ten conversations
• A worked example thread throughout: a fictional founder testing a lunch tiffin service, from first assumption to decision
