| Posted: 22 Nov 2021 07:46 AM PST Hi r/startups, I'm something of a lurker and had long been curious about entrepreneurship. By way of background I'm a mid 20's mechanical engineer, who's looking to eventually start building my own firm. I'm sure at a later date I'll be seeking help and guidance with that endeavour. An observation I have made is that most startups here are focused around either app/Web development or otherwise are services driven, I.e. there isn't often a tangible/ physical product being delivered. I was wondering if this observation resonates with anyone here? Is this likely due to the initial capital required to get a tangible product going vs a digital of services type offering? Is there something I have missed? As a mechanical engineer must of my own initial ideas have been product based, as opposed to services or digital. Am I likely to hit an insurmountable wall at some point? Your help and insight on this matter is deeply appreciated. Thanks in advance 😀 [link] [comments] |
| I have received a letter of intent to purchase my mobile app and need some help. Posted: 22 Nov 2021 11:01 AM PST I was approached by my biggest competitor to purchase my mobile app and bring me on as a full time employee with equity in the company. I have my lawyer that specializes in startups that I've sent the LOI to. My question: is it my lawyers job to help negotiate the terms or should I be speaking to another expert/consultant/broker of some sort? I have no idea what I'm doing or what leverage I have to ask for more if need be. [link] [comments] |
| How are you managing remote workers? Posted: 21 Nov 2021 01:08 PM PST We are a team of 15 people who are working remote since pandemic started in 2020. It was fine for first year but we are seeing many of our remote team is getting too causal now and we believe it is turning into lifestyle work. There is definitely lack of urgency by some team members. We honestly want to go remote permanently but we don't know how to keep them productive as well as what processes to follow to track their work and measure their efficiency. Edit - thanks for so many helpful suggestions. I am sure this thread suggestions will help other startups too who will continue working remote. [link] [comments] |
| Introducing Package Updater, a new tool for developers! Posted: 22 Nov 2021 01:16 PM PST Hi Reddit! We just launched our new startup, a dev tool made to help developers simplify updating packages in their web projects! This project took a few years to finally come to fruition. We spent a year or two making it as awesome as we possibly could, and then a few more months to finalize formation and corporate formalities. You can read more information about Package Updater, which is available in our Medium post. Our homepage is located at https://pkgup.io/. Check it out, we'd love to hear feedback or comments from you guys! Also feel free to say hi on Twitter (@PkgUpdater). [link] [comments] |
| How do you learn/develop biz/sales skills? Posted: 18 Nov 2021 09:16 AM PST Hi Not sure where I can post the question. By no means, I'm not a marketer but a data scientist/analyst. Recently, I'm building a splash page for my side project. But I feel like I don't know how to make it sounds great...my writing on site sounds so boring.. Just curious about people who are good at marketing here... How do you learn/develop business senses? Like writing paragraphs that interests you to wait... Best [link] [comments] |
| Struggling with concept of MVP as validation Posted: 18 Nov 2021 11:07 AM PST I am considering starting down the path of starting a digital health start up in the next few months. I have identified a specific problem and have been doing outreach to potential customers to learn about their experience with the problem. I have used FIGMA to build a basic wireframe to conceptualize the idea and have gotten good feedback. Based on some feedback I have received, I have started to use Bubble to build a very barebones MVP to get additional feedback and iterate. It is based on the most basic functions customers have told me they would appreciate and use. However, as I am working on this, I keep running into the idea that I am a non technical founder and know there are several huge technical obstacles in the way of deploying even a basic product that 1) achieves the most basic functions of what I am hoping to do and 2) is secure enough to make me comfortable and be able to ask people to even test basic functions on it. I know that I am learning a lot from Bubble, FIGMA, customer interviews and investigating the problem so don't view this as wasted time or energy. I would be a first time founder but have personal and professional experience in the space I am entering. However i struggle with a concrete way to more effectively validate and test an MVP. I am signed up to attend a virtual start up boot camp in January where I am sure I can find help with these issues and thoughts but wanted to see what experienced founders would do? Are there additional steps you would take to help fine tune the problem and validate the concept while I get everything else in line and decide if and when to move forward? Happy to provide more context if it would help. [link] [comments] |
