People often wonder how startups can survive when they don’t have anything to sell. The product or service is just a glimpse of an idea, or better yet, a few lines of code written on a night of inspiration. What does it take to start with a dream, build a whole reality upon it and stay strong along the way?

The sales before the launch<\/h2>\n

Even if your product is not ready yet, your startup sells more than you can imagine. The process begins the second you start thinking about that product and it never ends. It just gets more complicated along the way.<\/p>\n

So, what do you sell before the launch, before having a product or a service ready to be used? At least 4 things, let’s take them one by one.<\/p>\n

The idea behind your startup<\/h3>\n

This is the first step, even pre-startup. You have an idea of a product or service and you think it will be a success. It doesn?t even need to be revolutionary \ud83d\ude42 As long as you<\/strong> believe in it, it’s enough. However, at this point, you have to begin convincing others as well that it?s an amazing idea and it truly stands a chance. That?s when you start selling it<\/em>.<\/p>\n

You sell it to whomever wants to listen. Many would consider this pitch-testing, but I prefer to call it a sale.<\/p>\n

The promise of being profitable<\/h3>\n

The second you set off on your startup journey, you should be making this promise to everyone. Including to yourself. It’s the trigger that will put thoughts into motion.<\/p>\n
