How big (or growing) is the market for this in South Africa / Africa?

Not sure – feels like a small niche

I think there are quite a few people, but no numbers

I’ve done basic research (Google, Stats SA, etc.)

Clear evidence of demand and growth (competitors or trends)

Have you tested whether people would actually pay to solve this?

Not yet – I’m still building in my head

I asked a few friends/family

I posted in groups or ran a quick survey

I’ve had real conversations or pre-sales interest

How often do potential customers experience this problem?

Rarely – it’s more of a “nice to have”

Occasionally, depending on the situation

Weekly or monthly for my target group

Daily or constantly – it’s a “hair on fire” frustration

How clear is the exact problem your idea solves?

I have a vague feeling it could help people

I can describe the problem, but not in the customer’s own words

I can clearly state the painful problem and who feels it most

I have spoken to real potential customers and they confirm the pain
