How do you get access to the right people to validate an idea?

To get access to the right people to validate your idea, you don’t need a big network just a smart approach.

Know who you need.
Figure out whose opinion really matters potential customers, people who’ve lived the problem, or experts who know the space inside out.

Start with people you already know.
Ask friends, colleagues, or contacts for introductions. A warm intro beats a cold message every time.

Go where your people hang out.
Join online communities, forums, Slack groups, or events where your audience spends time. Be curious and helpful, not salesy.

Reach out genuinely.
A short, honest message works best — something like:

“Hey, I’m exploring a better way to solve [problem]. I’m not selling anything just trying to learn. Could I ask you a few quick questions?”

Keep the momentum.
After each chat, ask: “Is there anyone else you think I should talk to?” That’s how networks grow fast.

How do I start a successful business for a beginner with a low budget? Buying wholesale then reselling? What products to start with and where to sell?

Starting a business on a small budget is totally doable you just have to start simple and think smart.

1. Pick something easy to start with.
Buying wholesale and reselling is a great first step. You don’t need a lot of money just pick a few items people already want and test what sells.

2. Choose the right products.
Look for small, lightweight things that people buy often, like:

Phone cases or chargers

Beauty items like lashes or lip gloss

Fitness bands or water bottles

Trendy jewelry or home gadgets

Avoid big, fragile, or expensive products until you’ve learned the basics.

3. Find good suppliers.
You can start with sites like Alibaba, AliExpress, Faire, or even local wholesalers. Always order a small batch first to check quality.

4. Sell where your customers are.
Start free try Facebook Marketplace, eBay, Etsy, or TikTok Shop. Post clear photos, short videos, and honest descriptions.

5. Start small and reinvest.
Buy $50–$100 worth of stock, test what sells, and use your profit to buy more of the best-selling items. Learn as you go.

It’s less about finding the “perfect” product and more about starting small, testing fast, and learning quickly.
