Embarrassing founder fact
by•
I spent a year building a mobile app. A whole month drafting Terms of Service. Burned cash on stuff that didn’t matter.
Never shared it. Never talked to users. Built it alone. Quit before it launched.
Here’s what that taught me:
-A business is more than just an app
-Obsession is good, but a good team is better
-MVP = Minimum Viable Product, not Most Valuable Product
-Fail fast. Learn faster
Now I write Idea TBD - a newsletter where I share product ideas, early product wins (and fails), and everything I wish I knew back then.
If you're building or thinking about it, might be worth a read.
