Keep going, change course, or call it?
You have been telling people about your idea. Some sounded interested; nobody has paid yet, or maybe a few have. Enter what actually happened and get a straight answer about what to do next.
The decision rules from The Launch System, unsoftened: what people pay for counts more than what they say.
Who paid, who committed something real, who just sounded encouraging. The verdict comes from what people did, which is the only signal that predicts anything.
If the answer is change course, you learn which piece is broken: the audience, the offer, the price, or the channel, and why the pattern points there.
Keep going and you get a 30-day focus plan. Call it and you get a lessons document that turns the attempt into a head start on the next one. Either way, you leave with a document, not a feeling.

Five honest counts. One clear call.
Count what actually happened since you started telling people about your idea, and get a straight answer about what to do next.
