    I wouldn't call this true validation. Validation only comes when people hand you money for the product. That being the case, unless you're running a pre-sale, you need an MVP prior to validation. That's the whole point of an MVP.

    That being said, I do think your framework is a good way to get enough data to begin building the MVP.

      I agree with you that it is only when paying clients are acquired (as opposed to just a high CTR or consultation conversion rate) that a notion can be considered validated.

      Buying an MVP is also an option since there are a lot of startup marketplaces available. You can reach validation much faster and potentially save a ton of dev money and time.

      100% this framework isn't meant to be a silver bullet. It's something I use to add some structure to my startup idea process

      1. 2

        Seems like a solid framework for that, nice!

    Solid framework, do the work of finding the right problem to solve before building anything. It's what we did at https://growyourco.io
