Do your own thing - you don't need to be part of the rat race if you are not relying on investor cash.
With skilledup.life, you no longer need significant capital during the early stages.
What is the 1 important lesson you learnt as a founder?

Is #BuiltInPublic still relevant in 2024?
Last 2 years, there has been much attention placed on sharing your tech startup journey publicly. Is this a good strategy? Have you tried it out?

I think I've only appeared on one or two podcasts run by others. May be I should explore appearing in others.
Have you used Podcasts as a lead generation tool?

Are you ready to learn from us and follow our guidelines? If you do not engage and become a pain in the back side, SkilledUp Life may not...

Mine would be - keep your day job. If you are not happy, change the company and the boss. Same as what Jack Ma said.
What advice would you give someone who is starting their own company?

https://skilledup.life - free talent for tech startups started in the middle of Covid 19 pandemic.
I blogged about the start https://www.skilledup.life/backg...
Essentially, I lived with the problem since 2004. How do you build a team to take your vision for a tech startup forward if you do not have sufficient capital to hire a team?
Not every tech startup is investible. In fact, less than...

Thanks for the share @jason_lee_3282 . No code software makes it damn easy to start your own tech startup. When I started back in 2004, it was so hard to build a product. Now you can build and launch in a day.
But if you still want to turn your product into a thriving business, you need a team. People cost money, but if you are struggling to build your team, now there's a way forward thanks...
What are some excellent Low-Code/No-Code platforms & tools suitable for startups?

We have been running what I hack together to create our MVP in 3 days since Aug 2020 and I feel it's about time we explore improvements.
We have slowly grown to over 19,000 strong free talent pool from 103 countries. Our immediate target is to get to 25,000 as quickly as possible.
What's next for your product? Any exciting updates or features in the works?
