← Is Your Idea Worth Pursuing? Chapter 8 / 8
Where this goes next
Worth pursuing is the first loop, not the last. Run it on LEANSpark, then go find out if real customers want it.
Getting an idea from a sentence to plausible is move one — the idea → plausible stretch of the lifecycle. The bet you just committed is a desirability question: which customer actually wants this. That’s exactly what comes next — pressure-testing the bet against real customers with interviews and the forces that make people switch. Worth pursuing is the first loop, not the last.
