Ask HN: how to extract the numbers from an idea?
We have an idea. Great. Then how do we prospect the market size? Revenue model? Growth projections?

- zemanel 16y agoYes, but where? Google? Competition?
- wwortiz 16y agoPretty much anywhere you can get it, google and competition would be good starts (competition could be a good idea of a market depending on their success). Put up a landing page with email sign ups for notification of when product opens. Use any tool you can find.
- zemanel 16y agoI'm developing a product targeted at a similar market as LinkedIn, but directed at portfolios. I've been told that it's something very difficult to build a business model on but i still believe in the idea and i'm looking ways to research it. In this case i could data mine LinkedIn for example then. Are you aware of any reading material about it and guidelines to define pricing and etc? EDIT: my goal is to elaborate a business plan on it, at least something that could be improved on
