I don't like using surveys for initial user research at all, preferring actual 1:1 user interviews instead, which is why I ask you these:

1. What is your biggest business pain point now - something that frustrates you and you're struggling to solve well/with low overhead?

2. If I were to solve this, would you still have very little patience or would you be excited to meet 1:1 with me and explain this pain point?

That's my gut instinct as well.

Thanks for the ideas on how to approach getting user feedback.
