Ask HN: How do you test ideas before building?
How do you test an idea for a new product without building it?
- zkirill 4y agoI remember a story about a book author (may have been Tim Ferris) printing book covers, placing them in libraries, and observing how many people picked out the book. That story stuck with me and I extrapolate from it for new products.
- mkranjec 4y agoCare to explain how would observing that work in practice? There's no ISBN, so you can't track rentals. QR or URL would not give "real" results.
- zkirill 4y agoYou sit on a chair in the library or book store isle next to where you put your “book”.
- parentheses 4y agoThis is a damn cool hack!
