@loro306 Nope, I think they are probably just stupid or didn’t like me or whatever. Not sure. Maybe my application was bad. Hard to say. But I have a product built, close to $400K in revenue, and strong enterprise traction. So it’s hard to say they didn’t like me on the basis of customer. It’s...

@613jono Bro, I can call anyone I want stupid. That’s my take. As far as how I come across, someone asked me why I thought they rejected, there’s one of many reasons. But obviously I think they are stupid. I believe anyone that won’t bet on me is stupid. That’s how every founder should feel. As...

@613jono Moreover when someone says raising $1M is low. Yeah that’s stupid. It’s an extraordinarily elitist statement. Especially given I know people that struggle to raise more than $25K. That’s not a knock on them too, but it’s one of respect. Getting anyone to give you their money is hard...

@ddhurley Oops forgot to answer the plug and play. It can be both. At the end of the day we produce a series of APIs that you can build around. But you can have deeper intergrations like connecting your DBs and such

@ddhurley I didn’t need to raise, we were profitable. But money in the bank is helpful. Plus this lets me pay myself too. Moreover I should clarify, the $400k i the annual contracted value. It’s dispensed in different intervals (monthly, quarterly,etc.). We are around 70% gross margins. Glad...

@sweetheart1 That’s not a bad idea haha. I kinda just threw it together without a whole lot of thought

@loujohn Thank you!

@spatel The Wix website? No, I did that alone. I think I found some template that had most of what we needed.

@vividrichard It’s a lot of time and effort. You should focus on speed if you’re building a start up and anything you can do to talk to customers faster is the route you should take

Don’t try and build out the landing page natively

@pledgerosaparks We just used Wix. We needed the landing page to look mostly nice

@remnant72 $400K in Annual contracts, MRR is a bit of not the right label since some of the payments come in quarterly. 20 customers in total (technically we are still in a bit of a beta). And yes but it’s like AI B2B and I suppose it’s more like developer tooling

@sweetheart1 Yup, I just pinged a ton of people on LinkedIn. If you go on LinkedIn and search up early stage investors, you’ll find a ton. Just ping any and everyone of them. But again it only makes sense to do this if: - You have some semblance of a product built - Traction - Customers With...

Title says it all. I could give the spiel of my journey, but figured I’ll just answer any questions One thing I do want to say is that building a business is really hard. Every day you’ll feel like you are getting you stomach linings ripped out. But you’ll find success you just have to keep...
