Help with Idea Validation
I'm exploring creating a SaaS app that would be aimed at communities, for example Podcast followings. It would be set up by the community owner such as the podcast creator. I'm keen to validate the idea before building but I'm struggling to get through to potential customers, I've emailed, messaged on Twitter etc. but I'm not getting anything back.
Are there any tips or methods that may help me get good feedback on the idea?
Hi Sam, my company's founder just put together a video on how to decide if there's a market for your product before you make it, might be useful!

Difficult to diagnose. Can you share the message you're sending here? (and what kind of person you're sending it to)
Are there any local meet ups where these community owners hang out?
Do you have content that might be valuable to those people?
I've had some luck promoting projects by writing blog posts.
Would some titles like "Why your community needs X" "Mistakes to avoid in your community when doing X".
At the beginning I got very small amounts of traffic but most of the time it was the right kind of person
That's a good idea, I might write a Medium post on how this thing benefits communities and see what comes from that.
