I used to have many of those and did many of them; I noticed I always need a partner who does the business side while I do the tech. I sometimes can do both, but generally it interferes too much. Usually now it is more a social thing where I find someone with the good idea and enough business skills to complement me and then go ahead. That is not getting easier; seems many people now simply outsource the mvp, fail, think it was the idea and move on. Not enough prep, drive and engagement of the fou nder(s).

I've been involved in a few of these products, and you're right, they do happen. In my experience it's just tough to run a business. The outsourced product can be great, but it is going to be an MVP. You need to focus on it.
- tluyben2 9y agoYes, I do not mean outsourcing does not work per se; it is more the feeling you can toss a few $1000 over the wall and then start selling that is wrong. Focus is important.
