Startup validation phase guidance.

I need some help and guidance from you.

Cutting to the chase, from an Indian context. Hypothetically let’s take oyorooms and budget hotel startups as they are the flavour in the last few months.

1) Tool – what’s the easiest and inexpensive way to do customer validation on website?


2) When is the right time to get an in-house tech team post customer validation?


3) When is it safe to go for mobile only site and should it be just a inexpensive mobile enabled website


4) What are the KPIs we should look out for, to understand customer need? Is it just registration?


5) What is the minimum duration for which we should timebox? Or is it just gut with some data? 


6) Like 
instacart.com Founder CEO who did not have a co-founder until after 1 year. would you suggest that we keep looking and networking until we are comfortable?

Best,
