Hi,

I have helped many startups and it is true that you should research an idea - well done for this - not everyone does it or does it well enough.

Do you start with the problem you are trying to solve (or pain or need or desire)? It depends of course if you are looking at B2C or B2B solutions but if B2B, have you tried finding one or people with the need? If you can get them to commit to purchasing your solution early then this is a good sign and can fund development. Development of product is then a large undertaking itself but totally doable with the right help.

This is a very big area for discussion and I certainly cannot cover everything here!

Check out my video on how to turn your idea into a startup at https://softwarestartupcoach.com/

Happy to have a call to discuss further.

Regards
Stuart
