AN ADVICE
Identify your customers first and understand their inner motivation when developing a product/solution. Customer feedback is important, but, it is not the last word. Customers/Markets are not qualified to validate new ideas or solutions. You need to believe in what you are doing and pull it through.
Pay attention to brand identity and image. And also to the language you use. These influence decision making.
