For B2C (business to consumer) offerings, here is a menu of some options for getting customer feedback:
- Ask AI
- Ask 3 friends or team members to look at the product and let you know what they think (this might take ~0.5 days).
- Ask 10 friends or team members to take a look (~2 days).
- Send it to 100 trusted/volunteer alpha testers (~1 week?).
- Send it to 1,000 users to get qualitative or quantitative feedback (~2 weeks?).
- Incorporate it into an existing product to get feedback (1 to 2 months?).
- Roll it out to a large user base of an existing product and do rigorous A/B testing.
