I use my calendar a lot and every morning I start with 2 hours of sales and it built me a habit, and I become more efficient at doing it.
I would say on average 40 hours per week.

ManyPixels is the alternative to a freelancer, in-house employee, or agency. You pay a flat monthly fee per month and get unlimited design work (with a money back guarantee too!)
You can ask anything you want: Landing Pages, UI, Illustrations, Blog Posts Covers, Social Media Graphics, Logos and Branding, etc.
This usually works best for ongoing design needs. You integrate your as part of your team and put things on autopilot and never have to worry about design again - it's like having your own personal designer.
Happy to get on a call to demo you how it works + send you a strategy plan via email afterwards.

We offer a 14 days, 100% money back guarantee. We do have some bad actors but I think the fact that design is highly subjective, the money back guarantee really convinces customers to try us. Currently we have less than 3% refunds.
Manypixels is an on-demand graphic design outsourcing platform. For a fixed monthly fee we do unlimited UI, logos, banners and illustrations. We work with designers and project managers fully remotely and pay them a hourly salary.
Looking for freelance designers and freelance project managers.

After a few weeks it grew to $5000/month then $10,000 month and we're now at $40,000/month after 8 months.

Before thinking about validating your idea / researching your market etc ask yourself "What value am I providing to the world / to the market?". Value is fundamental to your business because you, as an entrepreneur, get paid for putting that value into the hands of your users / customers.
Your role as an entrepreneur is to shift resources from a lower area of productivity to a higher area of productivity (example: Instead of 100g selling coffee beans for $1, you buy a cup and a coffee machine and sell a cup of coffee for $5, you successfully created value). You get paid for creating value, and you get paid for identifying market needs and delivering that value to the customers.
When something goes wrong with your business, always think about value: "Am I delivering value to users"
Next step, about validating, I would also advocate for a MVP (or in the case of a product a MVO: Minimum Viable Offer). The role of a MVP is to seek the shortest path to deliver value to customers. In other words, it is to validate your assumptions so that you can justify the time / financial commitments to build an actual or better product. The MVP is not about your product, it's about validating your value proposition.
Talk to your most loyal users and try to identify their needs and the value they are getting from your SaaS. Why do they use your service? What is their single biggest frustration / the single biggest value they get from your service? Can you find similar customers? How can you reach more of the users you want?
Once you really nail the value proposition you have and map out clearly who your customers are and why they love your service it is easier to know where you're going for marketing and growing your business.
Good ideas for the rest, will experiment with that.
1. We will have to work on real projects and treat them as "real customers" which will give us customer insights on what we should improve.
2. Targeting communities of entrepreneurs such as IH/HN will allow us to pick skills in a pool of people "who have done it before" or who might anticipate problems we might have and suggest actionable solutions.
