keep trying to find a founder instead of trying to find a business model
I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. YET, if you want to go through the YC route, I think finding a cofounder would be more important than finding a business model.
- DanielBMarkham 17y agoYou are correct. And yet you have completely missed the point. They are not mutually exclusive. And yes, the cofounder is more important. Today's the deadline and you have a beta product and no cofounder. Do you apply or not? More seriously than this YC stuff, do you stop working on a business idea and execution because you don't have a cofounder? Or do you continue forward, constantly looking for a chance to find one? EDIT: I see you've edited your comment to include a YET. At this point, seems like you are the one imposing a false choice here: the YC route and all other ways. There are many options and paths and most of them don't require you to pick one or the other.
- freshfunk 17y agoI like your attitude Daniel. Keep on truckin'! (Frankly, I have qualms working with anyone who still uses hotmail... haha jk.)
