How fucking hard can it get to build just one successful fucking startup or an app or a game or any fucking software possible in this universee.......

Idk never had a startup *triggers @Stuxnet*

It's not easy at all. To be successful you need so many things to go right, starting with a great idea and a fuckton of constructive effort.

@rendezvous then register....

A lot of it is dumb luck I’m afraid, the whole meritocratic rags to riches thing only works some of the time and only to a certain extent most of the time.

🤷‍♂️

Them’s the breaks kiddo.

I’ve been involved in many startups and consulted on many “Life Changing Ideas” 🤨.. Not that people really want the truth.

Just ask what value your product provides and the use case for it and keep that in mind constantly. We humans are now ADD as fuck, choice fatigued, cynical and selfish so unless it entertains us (even angry birds creators basically went broke first), provides value or purpose its a long shot. Find a market segment, release quick with a solid MVP with real value, get feed back and just keep refining as the masses tell you what they want.

Keep in mind people don’t know what they want until you show it to them, but they’ll happily tell you how to change it. Take the changes with the highest congruent number of change responses from people first and add them in.

Best of luck!!

Otherwise just create whatever the fuck you want because you want to and see what happens... when you have no expectations it’s a wild ride :)

The first thing you should ask yourself is, would I be willing to pay for that app/service? Then go and ask your friends/relatives what they think about your idea? Does it help them somehow? If so, would they be willing to pay for the service (assuming it wouldn't be done by you, to remove bias)

Next you need a "team" like someone doing the sales stuff, someone doing the other stuff that has to be done (like legal/advertisment/etc.)

And the third and most important thing is timing combined with sheer dumb luck. This one probably kills the most startups.

Also don't expect money at the beginning. It will take a year or two...

@M1sf3t Spewing about the first round but second round Sounds wicked and no doubt you’ll be successful once people start using your stuff. 👌🏼

@M1sf3t I feel you in that one. Took me ages to recover from the burnout and I think now I’m permanently unemployable lol. I like doing my own thing.
