With a prototype, you can present your business idea, obtain feedback at an early stage and thus better understand the users and continuously improve your idea.

A prototype does not necessarily have to be a product
You can also make a “prototype” of a service. Here are a few examples of possible prototypes:

• Produkt-Prototyp
• Test-Version einer App/Online-Plattform (Wire Frames)
• Pop-Up Store, um dein Angebot zu testen
• Beschränkter Zeitraum (Zwischennutzung, Kultur)
• Basis-Version einer Dienstleistung/eines Angebots

Tip: With so-called mockup tools you can create a click dummy for apps.

It is also very easy to create a first version with pen and paper.
You can also make classic product prototypes out of cardboard, adhesive tape, wood, etc. Creativity is the key to success here! Be it at home in the garage or in mom’s kitchen. Need whatever is available. Before you start developing, you should think about the requirement. A catalog of requirements also helps in this regard.
