1. be flexible and ready to accept that users need totally different product 2. focus on main features and fast tests. you'll be able to build better design and infrastructure instead of MVP, but you can't get back time spent on something that appears to be useless

Here are some helpful tips I used when starting my business: Logomakerr.ai, an AI-powered logo design maker platform that empowers startups and small businesses. Identify your target market and their needs: Conduct thorough market research to understand your target audience's pain points, preferences, and behaviors. This knowledge will guide your product or service development, ensuring it meets their needs and increases your chances of success. Build a strong team: Hire talented individuals with complementary skills who share your vision. Collaborating with a dedicated team can drive innovation, productivity, and overall success. Choose team members who are passionate about your industry and can contribute to your startup's growth. Embrace digital marketing for online presence: Invest in a compelling website, active social media profiles, and targeted digital marketing campaigns. Utilize search engine optimization (SEO), content marketing, and social media advertising to reach and engage your target audience effectively. A solid online presence is essential in today's digital age to attract customers and establish credibility. Remember, each startup journey is unique, and while Logomakerr.ai faced its challenges and successes, we continue to learn and grow alongside our customers.

Live your 'why.' It's important to write down the reason why you're doing something and remind yourself of it every day, whether you're having a good day or a bad day. Don't stray from this motivation, let it guide you like a compass. Remember that your product is not the reason why you're doing this, it's simply a representation of it. If it doesn't work out at first, don't give up, try something else that aligns with your true and deep motivation.

When you're starting out: 1. First define a clear problem statement 2. Talk to users to establish: a) if the problem is valid & b) acute enough for users that they will care for the solution 3. Don't try to solve everything, find the most crucial part of the problem. And design the solution so that you can launch quick say in 30 days. 4. Test with users, iterate and improve the product Also imp: don't try to solve for a larger audience. In the start, solve for a very small audience; as small as possible!
