Reminds me of the famous Wolf of Wall Street scene with M. McConaughey: "Keep the client on the Ferris wheel, and it goes, the park is open 24/7, 365, every decade, every goddamn century. That’s it. Name of the game."

It does not mean you never can start something again! I am definitely gonna keep trying ... my thinking was only: I need to get more into a startup scene and Berlin should be a great choice for this. Good luck with your search!

I was looking at Product management mostly, and at the end ended up in Project management where I had most experience.

I admire this effort and wish you a lot of success with it. I see three main problems: 1) tech people probably do not cook much and more order/eat out, so it is hard for me to imagine chefs/grandmas/not-tech-savvy people usin

I really like the idea. I have something similar, but it's only my collection of excellent recipes at lindyrecipe.com Much more basic idea, basically a blog with curated recipes.

Hi _ah, thanks a lot for this input, it really helps. I wish I read some of these points a couple of weeks ago, but ok, can't complain. You are right, especially about user-research. I will do that. I got some people interested, but ag

Thanks for your thoughts, Irongirl1, I am actually based in Europe, so I hope there is some hope left. But I also get your point. I have gotten some nice feedback on my advert at least, so this feels good. I also got some "applicants&q

Hm, that is an interesting point as well. I have a basis in Python, but I also know that my strengths are rather elsewhere, so then if I invest 18 months in learning to code it is still likely my coding skills will be below average and I w

You are right, I was not sure if I can post it initially. https://bit.ly/cofounder-wanted So, at least ... I got some replies, do you think I should repost? I do not know how it works, because I only recently joined, and di

No worries, I like your input. I think I am in the category of solid business knowledge/skills/experience :) And I am also curious to learn stuff and have some technical skills. And I studied political science :) https:/&#x2

Haha, I love your 99 analogy! I am in fact thinking in this direction already (eg. Zapier and similar) and will do majority of ground-work myself. But I am also aware that my topic is sensitive, so it will be hard to prove that it works. I

Yes, that is exactly what I did: https://bit.ly/cofounder-wanted I was not sure if I am allowed to put links into the initial post, so I did not add it.

Thanks a lot Svennek. It makes a lot of sense what you are saying ... I have been getting some traction to my advert and I am also realising I need to learn to do at least basic stuff by myself. Here is the advert: https://bit.ly
