If you’ve ever felt like you had a great idea that just didn’t gain traction, you’re not alone, and the good news is, there’s usually a fix.\nI’m breaking down the misconception that having a good idea is enough to guarantee sales. Spoiler alert: it’s not. Marketing plays a huge role, and oftentimes, it’s not that your idea is bad — it’s that it needs a better strategy or a small (or big) pivot based on what your customers actually want.\nWe’ll look at real world examples like Instagram and Airbnb to see how successful companies started with one idea, listened to user feedback, and evolved into something that people were eager to pay for. I’m also sharing how you can apply this to your own business by using the exact strategies we teach inside Validate, my program designed to help you test, refine, and position your product for success.\nIf you're feeling stuck or unsure why your product isn’t selling like you hoped, this episode will help you reframe the problem and take actionable steps to move forward with clarity and confidence.\nListen to the full episode to hear:\nWhy having a “great idea” isn’t always enough to make sales\nThe role of marketing in turning interest into income\nHow real businesses like Instagram and Airbnb adapted to succeed\nPractical steps to validate and improve your product with customer feedback\n\nFREE Resources to Grow Your Online Business:\nGrab our free course, Small Business 101: https://gillianperkins.com/free-training-small-business-101/ \nWrite a Profit Plan for Your Business : http://gillianperkins.com/free-profit-plan \n\nWork with Gillian Perkins:\nApply for $100K Mastermind: https://gillianperkins.com/100k-mastermind \nGet your online biz started with Startup Society: https://startupsociety.com \nLearn more about Gillian: https://gillianperkins.com \nInstagram: @GillianZPerkins","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/jSVFNaMVaq2xN_XXMdPWb2thI2IwCmxWI1ny0RZrwGE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQ5MjUwLzE3MDY2/NDcyMjQtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
