This was not actually said about my startup but a good friend of mine’s startup, before he even got a chance to finish introducing his startup to his former class mates one of them said: ‘Wow that’s cute!’ They all replied ‘Yeah that’s very nice!’
2 years later he had $20M in the bank and had employed 3 of those friends.
- dan_sim 18y agoThe worst part of that story is that his friends probably didn't mean it. Probably the meanest thing is people that don't believe in what you're doing but don't want to say it. They think it will discourage you. So, you go on thinking "well, they liked it at least" when they didn't. That's bad.
