The level of honesty in the post is touching. Figuring out the right time to quit is as important as starting up. However, lack of outside funding especially after he looked for it might also be a sign that either the idea or the was he handled the business so far is not viable. 1000 tickets over that much time does not seem impressive. Again, inspiring post.
- brc 14y agoI'd say the low ticket sales coupled with scalability problems was probably the thing that brought about the end - possibly a surmountable problem, but one that takes a lot more time and capital. (ie, each showing requires staff at the very least to collect tickets - he makes reference to smoking and drinking with the bar staff). That's the sort of problem that, if you come across it, and you're already low on energy + resources, is enough to finish it off.
