Perhaps you gave up too soon, your startup journey is shared by most (all?) startups i.e. where they end up finding PMF is often very different from where they started. It's a matter of sticking with it and if it's worth the opp. cost.
Admittedly, this is Survivorship Bias, since the overwhelming majority of startups fail. As PG said: "startups don't fail, founders give up"
- sombremesa 7y agoSure, but that's not the whole story -- the OP would also need to be okay with changing the idea drastically where and when required. As other people have noted in this thread, not much effort was made when talking to the doctors to find out what problem they do have, and no mention is made of ever even showing this product to consumers. The fatal flaw here was building a product "in secret" and not launching soon enough.
