Yes, I know. I've been listening to podcasts about how to setup a company and create a product for some time. I have an idea about creating a physical product with software (customizing a physical product, it involves using Blender). To test the product market fit I setup a fake webshop where the customers could describe in a textarea how they wanted to customize the product but when they clicked add to cart button, it threw an error. I logged all these clicks. I advertised it on FB, only at a limited region and I could get people add the product to their cart. The cost of getting one user clicking on add to cart button was way-way-way below then the expected profit margin so very likely I can make money out of it. So now I'm 1000% on it. If I'm lucky I can make at least as much as I make now and can leave my day job. I know it's not a full sw company but a sw enabled one and that would satisfy me. I want to go live with an MVP but later on want to make the customization process fully automated -> the users would do it, I'd just create the product and ship it. My goal is to make the UX so good that it would limit others to replicate it. Later on I can think about building a real sw company. Or not.
