Hey everyone! I'm currently building Tinyask, an audio Q&A platform for career knowledge We were featured as Bubble's App of the Day last week. Currently shipping a few features to increase user engagement. https://tinyask.co

The book was not only easy to read, but it was so insightful. It helped me understand venture capital from from a macro and micro level. Definitely recommend it to anyone who's thinking of raising.

https://tinyask.co Tinyask is a knowledge community for ppl building nonlinear careers where users learn together through audio Q&As and tiny cohorts.

Audio Q&A for career knowledge

Clearly define who you're building your product/MVP for - this was a game-changer for us as we're building www.tinyask.co. 5 months into building and having left our day jobs, we were speaking with potential users but it wasn't clear who we were building it for.
