Ask HN: How to validate an idea? What to include in the email?

1 点作者 adrian_pop超过 10 年前
I have an idea about a very simple (de-bloated, nothing to install) booking reservation system for small hotels and guest houses<p>There are people who manage these businesses with crappy sites and I want to offer them a cloud solution with almost zero modifications to their website (just a js tag or a subdomain).<p>The price? just a few bucks per month.<p>But, how to aproach them? At first I thought I should send them a personalized&#x2F;friendly email, 1-to-1. But: should I include a quick demo, flow, screenshots...what?<p>Thank you.

Is really hard to sell something to the hotels, in our own experience: <a href="https://medium.com/startup-lesson-learned/our-real-love-are-business-travelers-e98c98080e61" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;startup-lesson-learned&#x2F;our-real-love-are-...</a><p>But if is something not so hard to manage, i think that you could find some Wordpress Themes for Hotels and to talk with the developers of each one and works with them in the integration using WP.<p>Another strategy is connecting directly in Linkedin with: Ecommercer or Revenue Managers.<p>Best!

I wouldn&#x27;t complicate the the first contact probably need to lead with your strongest benefit. &quot;Are you interested adding 30% more bookings form the internet? something like that. Also, I would call a couple first. only way you&#x27;ll actually understand what they are looking for. just keep calling different places until you find some one that&#x27;s interest in talking with you. you could say your doing research for a project at college for that matter.
