A few more questions (takes only 2-3 minutes): 1. How serious of a problem it is for you personally? (On a scale of 1-5)
2. Did you ever try solving this problem? (Yes / No)
3. If "Yes", what solutions / approaches did you try? (1-3 sentences would be great)
4. Does the problem still persist today? (Yes / No) I'm conducting some research for my product, would appreciate any answer, detailed or not. Thank you, Hunters!

I've been going down a rabbit hole recently around idea validation. In the past, when starting a business of project, I have done everything from blindly pursuing the idea until something worked (often hard) right through to doing a more formal testing of the idea (worth it but harder to be objective). I'm curious. How do PH people do idea validation? If you have a great idea, what are your next steps? Edit: there have been some really fantastic thoughts and suggestions here! Starting with the end-user in mind is key, in an effort to understand their pains. I'm still curious as to how to ascertain market demand. Where do you go to see potential demand for an idea?
I'm just back from a weeks vacation which I used to relax in my own home and shut off for a while. Normally I reserve vacation solely for when travelling but that's not possible right now. How are you spending your vacation time?

Hello to all my fellow Makers! As a rookie product manager, I want to start a thread to invite some fellow makers to share insight on one of the most essential aspects of product development, "Where to begin?": Some thought-provoking questions I would love to hear discourse about are: 1) What has worked well for you when beginning product development, including what questions do you ask yourself or your team? And what hasn't?
2) How do you first engage with cross-functional teams when you're just beginning?
3) How do you provide clarity and remove confusion with your team?
4) What's your first step to defining "Product Vision"? The above questions are just a few of the top of my head but I would be glad to hear more!

I'll start first: Facebook Ads. We've realized it's simply too early to advertise there (most SaaS companies were optimizing for 12-20 months return on investment, so they could allow to spend much more to acquire a customer). What about you?
I've been sending our weekly newsletters to my Mailchimp list for the past few months, and have noticed that my email open rates have been dropping. I am guessing that the content isn't as appealing to the audience anymore- any useful tips for increasing your email open rate?
Let me preface this by saying I love working I do, I guess I'm more asking what would you focus your passion on if money were not important? We are always told either to follow our passion or stick with what makes the money. Take money out of the equation, what would you do? I'd have a cabin somewhere in a forest overlooking a lake with no internet whatsoever and just live my life with some dogs.
Do you think it is harder to raise capital as a solo founder? What are some things you should keep in mind?
Any tips for applying to accelerators etc. as an early-stage solo founder?
I think in our day to day lives we all have aspects we wish we could automate and in startups thats especially true, for me I think it would be the entire design side. A.I please make a solid Figma design generator
