Founding a startup: talk product, team and the long road
TUREFF• •0
Startups are a particular kind of business: built to grow quickly, often with outside funding, usually with more questions than answers. This room is for founders, early employees and the curious.
Here are some topics that never really go out of date:
- How do you know when a product has found real demand?
- Co-founders: how did you meet, and how do you split responsibilities?
- Bootstrapping versus raising money, and what each cost you.
- Keeping a small team motivated through uncertainty.
Experiences differ wildly by country, sector and stage, so tell us your context when you share advice. And be generous with feedback; many people here are taking a real personal risk.
Share what you are building, ask for honest input on a pitch or plan, and come swap notes with other founders in the chat.
