IdeaPros has made a new addition to its library of informative articles aimed at aspiring entrepreneurs. “Sell Your Product Before You Make It” was released to introduce the concept of presales and how it can be implemented in aid of product validation.

According to the startup education provider, the presale process begins with awareness, adding that this phase can be completed relatively inexpensively using a website and a small reward in exchange for contact details. “Awareness is the fundamental building block in launching your idea and the good news: you can do a considerable part of it yourself,” the company said in the article.
IdeaPros pointed to Rooftop Liferafts’ approach as an example of a successful awareness campaign. It said that this company’s founders created content about the dangers of floods and how its product idea can be used to save lives; the positive response they received validated their concept even without having an actual product.
After building a sizeable following, the next step is to determine the “intent to purchase”. IdeaPros clarified that the goal of this stage is not to turn a profit, but to determine the percentage of people (out of the total who responded to the awareness campaign) ready to spend money on the proposed product.
The third phase is the presale itself. According to IdeaPros, if enough traction is generated, it can be used to generate a forecast model, which can then be presented to potential investors. “It starts the tipping point as you begin figuring out the rest,” the company added.
