- lesbianbezos 5y agoI'm a solo founder. I dropped out of Stanford, made $180k through past projects, and whenever I worked with co-founders my projects have failed. It's a common narrative that it's harder to be more successful as a solo founder. I don't agree because actually 66% of startups fail because of cofounder conflicts. Also startups with single founders tended to last longer and eventually achieve higher revenue (52% startups with succesful exits is solo founded). So if you are a solo founder, your risk of failing goes down significantly. As for having someone to share your struggles, I joined this solo-ish founders community called https://FoundersCafe.io https://FoundersCafe.io and they are bascially my co-founders without any of the drama. I also hired out all the skillsets I lack. Being a solo founder is fucking awesome as long as you have your needs met (emotional support + skill gaps)
