Test the product on a real audience
Telling everyone you know about the new project is a useful idea. But this is not a full-fledged testing. Friends can praise the product, but this does not mean that they will pay for it.
Don't ask about product evaluation. It's useless: we received positive feedback from 95 people, but none of them booked a tour
A quote from an aspiring entrepreneur from an article for vc.ru
To "feel" the audience, conduct an interview with strangers from the desired segment. Where to find them:
Professional forums. Look for active participants and knock on their personal account. If the rules of the forum allow, create a topic with an invitation to testing.
Reddit. This is a social news site with a huge audience. Find the right topic and write messages to the most friendly participants of the discussion.
Social network. Join highly specialized communities and invite participants to try the service.
Just write to a potential buyer about the project and the desire to consult. Offer in return a gift or a review of his product. Many people are happy to express their opinion to an interested interlocutor. And you will get an honest review and understand the needs of the audience.
