Perhaps you could initially target one of these groups and try to make Letz (+1 for that version of the name) the best app for their specific use case.

Also, one trick to make sure people in interviews are being honest with you is to get them to commit to a concrete action. It can be as simple as getting their e-mail address and then sending them an e-mail with a fake link just to see if they click on it, or as hardcore as asking 20$ in advance for a "premium access to the finished app". This way you'll see if they REALLY need what you are building.

haha, I like the $20 dollars commitment. we actually started development of a pretty much full blown app, I dont want to call it an MVP because this app is quite complex but I only did so because in order to give a good product/solution I wanted to make sure it could result in conversion/giving the users the desired result of their install. I will be targetting a specific market to start and be running a prelaunch campaign for beta testers in the upcoming week, I will let you know what the result is.
I would be most interested, especially to compare how your experience differs from ours (we also have a B2C app that needs to overcome the ghost town syndrome in order to be successful).

You can reach me at e-mail written in my profile!

IMS cant find your email in your profile not there. "Let's" stay in touch and try to help each other with our growth strategies.

Do you see what I did there? lol
