| How can I keep the momentum of a successful launch going? I’ve never gotten this far before... Posted: 03 Jul 2018 07:46 AM PDT This morning at midnight, my product started as #5 Product of the Day on Product Hunt. I'm a developer-first entrepreneur and had the classic problem before of never being able to actually get my product launched! Now, we're sitting at about 100 upvotes, my first paid subscriber that isn't family or friends, and now... I have no idea what to do tbh. How can I use that momentum we gained and keep it rolling? Any advice? Or resources that might be helpful? I know it sounds like I should have made a better post-launch plan, and I SHOULD HAVE. But the only obstacle I had my sights on was finally actually launching a product. :P We're still technically in the validation phase! Thanks for taking the time! I'm one lost puppy...

| A blog about building your MVP & finding your first customer (stories from entrepreneurs) Posted: 04 Jul 2018 01:52 AM PDT Hi all, my name is Sabba one of the people who this made this blog. Where we were building our first product (www.veed.io), our two biggest concerns where...
we decided to do ask other makers about their experience and found it super interesting. We imagined that we were not along, so we decided our findings on a blog. I hope you likei! https://www.veed.io/takethebait/ if you like it please consider upvoting us on product hunt too. https://www.producthunt.com/posts/take-the-bait Thanks! Sabba [link] [comments]  |
| [Quick Question] Refunds, Returns, Order Cancelments - a question about their time Posted: 03 Jul 2018 07:09 PM PDT So, you've got refunds, you've got returns, and you're got the dreaded order cancelment. In your opinion what are the best time slots for each one? I'm improving my newly-created store and this question is confusing me - I don't know what to choose. I've seen stores that have in their policy that refunds and cancels are only available in the first 24 hours, I've seen other cases where refunds are valid up to 60 days after the order has been placed (or shipped in my store's case, right now), as well as cases that only have the refund in a 15 day window. And these are only 3 of numerous possible examples. At first I was thinking (I do dropship) that because arrival times are between 2 to 6 weeks that a refund policy of 60 days was sensible, but I'm starting to question all this. What do you think is the best choice? [link] [comments]  |
| Laptops and other equipment for employees Posted: 03 Jul 2018 06:12 PM PDT Hello r/startups, We're currently a small team of 3 (all founders until now) and we're planning on hiring a few people soon. I was wondering what should we purchase for the employees that we hire? I can think of the work laptops and maybe work phones and phone plans? I'm not sure how common is it for people to have a separate work phone and if it is too much inconvenience to carry around two phones. Also do you recommend any retailers that would be best to purchase the equipment from? For the developers, we are considering the latest macbook pro but I'm not sure if getting them from Apple Store would be the best option. (not sure if there are any places that we can get them in bulk that offer a discount) Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for tips and hacks for success. Posted: 03 Jul 2018 11:59 AM PDT As founders and entrepreneurs, what are people's best tips, strategies and growth hacking ideas for productivity and success. One of mine... I make sure that each day I am reaching out to atleast 5 new people that will be able to act as either a strategic partner or adviser to the company.. or atleast 5 new potential revenue / sales prospects. If I don't.. regardless of how good a day it was with other tasks, I look at that as a missed day of seeding opportunity. It takes time to network and close new business. Don't miss a day to lay the groundwork. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Jul 2018 09:43 AM PDT I've built my startup from scratch by myself, got the application developed, created the website and integrated all the relevant systems together. Basically my application works but to grow my business I need to find the right team of people with a similar work ethic and ambitions as me. This is the most challenging part. I've gone to a few networking events but most people are already part of a startup or have their own. Can anyone give me some advice on where I can find a CTO / CMO for my startup? I need to hand the technology side off to someone so I can grow the business by bringing in clients, which is a lengthy process since we're in talks with Premier League clubs and there are typically numerous meetings with various individuals and as you can imagine this is all over the country and so I can't be guiding development while focusing on closing a client. Just looking for some advice! Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Jul 2018 08:38 AM PDT I'm joining a start up, working part time and non-paid and have received the contract which states: The Company is required to transfer equity to the Co-founder representing 7% of the total shares of the Company. The equity can be recalculated starting from Series B investment (the investment in the amount not less than $6 000 000), in this case the co-founder shall provide a part of his equity which will be equal to the total equity used during raising funds, i.e. the Company is raising $12 000 000 in exchange of 15%, the Co-founder shall provide 15% of his equity. This is Equity dilution yes? Is this usual when the equity provided is low as in this case, or is it to be expected at any % ? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Has anyone launched their product using OpenSource projects ? Posted: 03 Jul 2018 04:41 AM PDT Ive been wondering, since there is so much open source code out there, has anyone of you setup your company using purely Open source projects ? if yes, I would be interested in knowing your experiences. Was it good or bad ? One can literally find projects on almost anything and free to use. I see so much potential in open source and yet I havent seen any businesses who kickstarted using open source code. (Yes you do need some customization, UI changing, tweaking the algos a bit, but most of the work is already done). [link] [comments]  |
