Thanks a lot for all the great insights to my initial post.
Long story short, the niche ended up choosing me. I talked to an entrepreneur who had an in-field sales team and needed help with supervising the meetings his salespeople were conducting. Even though I had a remote sales team, I realized that I had countless problems myself caused by not supervising them well enough.
With all the improvements in GPT, I think most of the supervision can be automated, and I'm super excited to build my idea.
Before building it, I want to validate it by talking to some business owners and sales managers. I also want to apply to Y Combinator, and doing this research will improve my chances of getting accepted.
I tried reaching out to my network but didn't have any success. Even from the guy I'm helping with this, I’m still waiting for a sales meeting recording.
I just started a LinkedIn DM automation to reach out to sales managers, but in the past, I didn’t see great results with DM campaigns. I was wondering if there are things that I can do to improve my outreach methods.
What are the best trainings, books, or courses on cold outreach? How can I improve my reply rate and book calls?
Do you have any other advice on validating ideas?
Thanks a lot!
