How to Validate a Business Idea in 24 Hours

Before you spend months building something nobody wants, let’s test your idea — fast.

Here’s the 24‑hour validation method:

Step 1: Describe your idea in one sentence. If you can’t explain it simply, it’s not ready.

Step 2: Ask 10 people in your target audience. Not friends. Not family. Real potential customers.

Step 3: Create a simple landing page. One headline. One benefit. One button.

Step 4: Share it everywhere. Social media, groups, communities — anywhere your audience hangs out.

Step 5: Track interest. If people sign up, click, or DM you… congratulations, you have a real idea.

If nobody bites? Good news — you saved yourself months of wasted time. Want more fast‑validation strategies? They’re inside the Entrepreneurship Starter Guides
