Business innovative process
Having a lot of ideas is great but picking the right ideas to work on might prove to be a challenge. There’s a couple of criterias you can use, but the main thing to think about is if the problem you’re trying to solve is something people actually want solving. Now, to go on about this, is to go on a phase called validation or testing through a survey or research and procure data, facts and evidence from clients, customers, or target market. Then, understanding the risk levels you are willing to take and the return on investment from the undertaking, financially speaking, if the prospective customers will be willing to pay for the product or service through the validation. Then, another way is by assessing risk and prospective customers if they’re willing to subscribe to the product or service through a demonstration.
