or you can run your project on indiegogo and kickstarter to validate your idea plus get your financing if reach your goals
I love landing pages and LaunchRock is one of the best. The beauty of a landing page is there's almost no wrong answer. In other words, use landing pages as a means to gauge how people might respond to you. They enable you to A/B test which basically means you can experiment with slightly different versions of the same landing page to see which gets more traction.
The first question I'd ask you is who is your intended audience? You obviously built a prototype of some sort. If I were to assume you've solved a problem, who did you solve it for? When those people are out searching for a solution to their problem, what are they searching for? How does the conversion sound? How can you use your landing page to insert yourself into that search?
There's not enough room here, but a using a landing page as part of a user onboarding, education, lead gen..... (whatever) strategy is a very good idea. You also may not know some of these answers, so using a landing page will inform you of who is actually interested in what you're offering. You may find it's a different market altogether.
Anyway, just a quick handful of thoughts.
Start promoting on social networks, this could be done for free. You will also need paid adverts on Google (AdWords) and Facebook. Go for CPC/CPM campaigns.
If you need more guidance, then setup a call with me.

How do you get access to the right people to validate an idea?
The art of the "cold pitch" is definitely something that needs to be worked on, and doesn't come naturally to everyone. A couple of quick tips: 1. 4 is not a big enough target group, you've got to cast a bigger net. Try pitching 20, and aim to get 3-5 responses. 2. When sending a cold email, really think about what you are offering them. Whilst you'll get the odd good egg that simply wants to help - you can't expect entrepreneurs and small biz owners to take time out of their day to answer your questions. To counter, why not tell them you're conducting research in the space, and would be happy to send the finds/reports back to them in a nice format, which could in turn help their business. 3. Don't give up, keep hustling. Try changing around the emails slightly, track which emails convert into responses, and fine tune from there. Good luck and feel free to book a call if you want to chat more. Best James.JP

I have a great idea for a mobile app. If I can fund the prototype then how do I seek investors?
A prototype will not get you an investor, to be honest. This is just a fallacy. If you can fund the prototype, launch it in the market, get some traction from users. See if your mobile app resonates with your users. You need to track whether your app is able to retain those users so that they keep coming back to it. If you have a good amount of retention with the first few set of users (100 or 1,000), that's a good pitch to take to an investor. Investors are not looking at ideas, they're looking at businesses that can get, retain and engage a customer.RV

What companies have successfully implemented both B2B and B2C products or services? Which should I start with for the non-profit sector?
I would suggest the first question to ask is "what problem do I solve?" And of those people I solve problems for "who do I create the most value for?" In the non-profit world you need to add "How does my business help the non-profit run better and/or help the group the non-profit focuses on?" For example, if you've created a platform that drives donations, your company "has created a platform that helps you reach fundraising goals faster." What you don't want to do is market and sell to B2B and B2C audiences simultaneously. They have different ways of buying - a B2B audience needs to have their benefits quantified (using your thing makes me x amount more) - and it's extremely hard for a startup to be able to do both well. Better to start with one, execute really well and move into the other. Feel free to give me a call and we can dig into who your most valuable audience is.AV

Which country offers the best outsourcing value for tech entrepreneurs?
I've used outsourced services several times successfully. I don't think using geographic location is necessary a good indicator for outsourcing value. In my experience it depends on the type of service you are seeking. For example, I've used crowdsourcing services for logo and web designs and discovered creativity has no geographic boundaries. Neither is the skill level necessarily the only indicator for the best creative. Some designs have been submissions from design student or freelancers with no formal training. As for technical work, I seek service based on the following criteria: - technical competency and skills - communication skills - Process skills (to manage overall risk of project) - references from existing clients. Country is secondary to the above list.ID
