Ask HN: MVP - How to handle the emotional roller-coaster ride?
Hi HN,
A few months ago I asked around 2,000 potential customers (B2C) if they would pay for this one product. Turned out that they hated the product in every way possible. I was really having problems with how harsh people declined.
Now fast forward to today. I have offered a new product to five potential customers (B2B) and even without me talking about money they offered to pay right away. Those five have been the first five I ever talked to about this product.
Now I am being realisitc, the market for my product isn't large. At the same time I am so excited that this thing will turn into a product with paying customers! Right now I can't eat, sleep or do anything that is not related to the product.
How do you handle such situations? Does it get less emotional after a few rides?
