*DarkHorseEntrepreneur.com/s6e564 - Product validation is often over-complicated with jargon, but it truly boils down to a single principle: evidence costs the buyer something. Whether it's time, attention, reputation, or money, a validation tactic only carries weight if the potential customer has skin in the game. Learning to distinguish between worthless feedback and genuine commitment transforms how entrepreneurs test ideas. This framework helps cut through the noise, allowing creators to focus on high-value signals rather than empty validation. By evaluating interactions based on cost to the buyer, every step of the research process becomes instantly clearer.
