- 999900000999 5y agoThank you ! I plan on reading this all in full. Edit : Very impressive way to pivot , best of luck !
- akulkarni 5y agoThank you :-) There's a lot of lessons I've learned along the way These are probably two of the top ones: 1. Solve a big problem that people have (even better if you personally have it) 2. Who you work with matters more than what you work on :-)
- 999900000999 5y agoSo the big question I have is how do I get started ? Looks like you had a small company, that was able to pivot and expand. I'm planning on spending at least 3 months diving into my side projects, and then I'll try YC again. Do I then just cold email various YC like funds until I fetch some interest, or should I focus on building my project.
