Optimized version:

1. Ask a lot of people who fund questionable, unproven businesses what they'll pay for.

2. Promise to fulfill their requests.

3. Take their money.

4. Follow through on your promise like an honorable member of society. (optional)

We didn't actually charge the credit cards. We wanted them to think the were paying so we would know if we were actually building something of value.
