Ask HN: I have a FANSI. What should I do?
I have a solution to a worldwide problem qualifying for the "Frighteningly Ambitious [new] Startup Idea" (FANSI) criteria with an initial sound business model.
Unfortunately I'm close to 50, with my roots deep in Europe (Marseille in France). I have no experiences and no trustful mentor to help me start a business.
For now I'm learning mobile web app development to get a quick running service and I'm trying to patent the solution to secure my bootstrapping. But I feel it all as frustratingly inefficient.
What could I do to get into higher gears ?
- acemtp 15y agoCreate a LaunchRock landing page and share it to see if your idea is so good.
- chmike 15y agoIt's not easy to explain the "what" without disclosing the "how". It's easily copyable but also subject to a strong network effect.
- mattquinn 15y agoThen how in the world do you ever expect to launch it in the first place? This kind of attitude always perplexes me - if your solution to a problem is excellent, there will be little incentive for others to copy it.
