The challenge is finding an effective barrier of entry so that you are connecting people on both sides who are serious.
Out of curiosity how did you build your MVP? Did you learn to code or did use no code tools or something similar?
- michaelje 5y agoI had a (relative to my profession) decent understanding of web languages(HTML/Php etc) from years in the marketing world, had a decent technical understanding, watched parts of the Stanford CS courses, and a lot of guess and check.. Google and throwing ideas around with technically minded friends/devs helped validate the ways I was approaching it. In the end I went to the source - Xcode and swift. In a fortunate way, moving to Canada right as the pandemic started meant I naturally had a lot more free time that I may have spent catching up with friends, travelling etc. Initially I was searching for local devs to work with but without a network and no one wanting to meet up with randoms I gave up and started to try do more and more myself. I should add it took me far longer than I would have liked - or a real dev would have taken. But my hope is with a true MVP in the hands of potential real clients it might be more appealing to the right person to take it on.
