As I read somewhere, trying to get funded by itself is a great exercise to validate your idea. Seeking external validation via funding is a great way to force you to come up with a viable business model and innovate. I think it is a win-win situation, in my perspective.

In this case, the very process of applying forces you to really think about your business model viability and that is a good sign.
