Friends are not proof that a product will sell
Friends often respond warmly when asked about a new web or app idea. They may say they would use it because they want to be supportive, not because they have a real need.
Building only from that can lead to weeks of work and no . is not about hearing that an idea sounds good.
It is about checking whether a real problem exists before building the solution. A SaaS idea should be tested against real customers, real pain, and a real chance that people will pay.
Key points
- Friendly does not prove .
- Supportive people may say yes without meaning they would pay.
- means checking the problem before building the product.
- A SaaS idea needs evidence from likely customers, not only friends.
- Real behavior matters more than polite interest.
