Customer Interview Script Pack – Validate Startup Ideas Fast (Free Download)

10 proven scripts to gain insights that save time, money, and guesswork.

Talking to potential customers sounds simple — until you sit down and realize you don’t know what to ask. Too many founders skip real conversations and build in the dark, wasting months on ideas no one truly want. The difference between a guess and a business that sticks is hidden in those early chats. But without the right questions, you’ll either get polite fluff or lead people into saying what you want to hear. That’s not validation — that’s self-sabotage.

The Customer Interview Script Pack makes this process easy. Inside, you’ll find proven scripts, practical probes, and a repeatable framework for getting honest answers from real people. Whether you’re testing your first spark of an idea, refining a product, or digging into why customers switch, these scripts give you confidence and clarity. You’ll walk away with insights you can actually act on — not just opinions.
