About this product
Turn a business idea into an evidence file and a defensible next decision.
Bring one early idea, access to people who might use it, and a way to keep notes. This field guide helps you investigate a buying situation, run a bounded test and decide what to do next. It does not certify demand, replace specialist research or guarantee that a business will work. All cases, conversations and results here are fictional teaching material.
