Question to ask in general: Is this a common enough workflow problem? Do we see this a lot? If yes, is there a product we can build around this? Not all problems are common. You might have a very unique workflow.

💰 HashiCorp (Terraform, Vagrant) was founded in 2012 and in 2022 made $476M 🚀 Founders built multiple million-dollar products 🧠 Ever wondered how they came up with the ideas? and how you can think about them too? Here's how the thought process for Vagrant:

Easy way to create a competitive advantage: Figure out what your competitors can’t do or won’t do for their customers, then do it.

"No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man."

Bad copywriting: ”5GBs of storage”. Great copywriting: ”1,000 songs in your pocket”. Sell the benefits, not the features.

The best comeback to anyone rubbishing your startup idea is to start making revenue

Two replies that make me respect someone more: 1) “I don’t know” 2) “I have nothing to add” The world is short on people who don’t make noise with their face just for the sake of it.

Building a startup for your existing audience is 10x easier than building an audience for your existing startup

@plehoux @missiveapp @ycombinator Well, the date of that email kinda confirms what they said. Doing 3M ARR is fantastic especially if its by a few founders. But it doesnt meet the expectations they have when they are investing in a company

Not long ago we reached $3M ARR at @missiveapp. I'm so GLAD @ycombinator did not accept us. 😎 We, the founders, own 100% equity.

@popdrazvan Haha yes

People who upload video game footage instead of football match highlights to clickbait on Youtube are the worst.

@notion_startup Indeed begging and appearing desperate are not effective strategies, won't get you far

Begging doesn't work and neither does appearing desperate. These are some kinds of begging: → Looking desperate when seeking a date. → Tactics that seem like begging to gain followers. → Waiting until the last minute to fundraise. What do you think?
