Free printable worksheet · no account required
Test one AI service idea before you build a business around it.
Use these seven prompts to check a real customer problem, make a small sample, verify rights and costs, and decide what to do next. This worksheet offers a method, not an income forecast.
Check the real need
What outcome would make this task easier? Separate a repeated behavior from a polite opinion.
Evidence / notes
What is still uncertain? What small question could clarify it?
Set the limits
List the exact sample, delivery time, tools, direct cost, and revision limit.
Evidence / notes
Can you verify permission for every image, voice, text, and brand asset? If not, do not use it.
Make one small sample
Use your own or authorized material. Make only enough work to show the proposed result.
Evidence / notes
What did the sample take in time and cost? What would you change before sharing it?
Ask with permission
Ask one suitable person if they are willing to review the sample. Make it easy to decline.
Evidence / notes
What did they actually understand, use, or question? Do not treat praise as a purchase.
Check delivery fit
Write the handoff, turnaround, included revisions, and any rights or platform limits.
Evidence / notes
After costs and time, is this small service still practical for you to deliver?
Choose a next step
Continue, narrow the offer, or stop. Base the choice on observed need, sample usefulness, rights, and delivery effort.
Evidence / notes
What is the strongest evidence? What would change your mind? No response is not demand.
Decision

Circle one. Write the evidence that led you there and the next action you can complete without making an unsupported promise.
