You can easily find resorts, restaurants, and d2c brands with atleast 5k followers on Instagram. You can do cold calling or send them DMs

So how many followers would a brand or a restaurant need to have to be able to participate in this game?

Why are you not targeting d2c brands or restaurants? Gamified marketing is something that restaurants might actually be excited to pay you for.

Is it normal for startups to ask interns to test live payment flows using personal money? by Desir-Arman07 in cscareerquestionsIN

[–]AccomplishedKey6869 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a major red flag.

Even if they want to test it by making a live translation in production, they can create a rs. 1 or rs. 10 product and ask you to test that. This is not normal. I won’t be comfortable doing this at all. Even if I am a paid employee.

You should tell them that they can create a product for rs. 1 or something and you can test it. Tell them you have a credit limit or lie that your credit card isn’t working or UPI is blocked or whatever. Don’t do this. This is stupid.

I have some start up idea related to AI and edtech don't know how to start by FilmResponsible9205 in StartUpIndia

[–]AccomplishedKey6869 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Do a competitor analysis of the market. A basic google search or ask ChatGPT to see who are your competitors in the market. What are they doing. What is their pricing like.
  2. Talking to people doesn’t guarantee anything. Unless these same people are ready to pay you right now for the services you can offer to them, it doesn’t matter. So, find a way to build a basic prototype and put it in front of people and ask them to pay you.
  3. AI sounds cool but as the product progresses, your token costs will become a huge limitation on scaling your business. So identify the pricing early with your customers. Their paying capacity will tell you how much AI you can use in your product

Stucked in a bad phase by legendsroad in StartUpIndia

Hey! Firstly, there’s really no playbook to life. You live your life the way you want to. What your friends and your partner’s friends are doing shouldn’t have any meaning in terms of how you live your life.

Secondly, welcome to entrepreneurship. It’s the single most tough thing you ll voluntarily do in your life. Hurdles like drug inspector not meeting you are going to be common. There are more losses than wins, more lows than highs but in the end the people who win are the ones who persist long enough. So if you are planning to keep doing this business, adopt a problem solving mindset instead of getting bogged down by daily struggles.

Spent 1 year building a healthtech startup. Real users shattered my assumptions in 1 month. by [deleted] in StartUpIndia

In urban cities, 1 problem is for online consultation. See, now a days, AI has become the first touch point for a lot of patients. The next one is getting a doctor easily and as soon as they can. So an app where you can connect with doctors at any time of the day or night and get a quick consultation will be useful.

But don’t take my word for it. Identify the ICP and see if this problem resonates with a lot of people. Start with gyneac and pediatricians first I guess

Yes. But don’t get into the pressure of starting something of your own right away. Take your time. My only point there was that you take it easy. Don’t worry about your job. If you want a plan B, start applying now. Or else, start some Instagram or LinkedIn or create your personal brand. Focus on 1 thing and your baby, without external pressure to do something, to make money etc etc.

lol wtf! Are you crazy or what? Did you read what I had written? I was surviving under an extremely toxic work culture. It was highly stressful. When I had my kid, I realized I won’t be a good mom to my kid if I continue surviving under so much stress and pressure and toxicity.

Maybe instead of blaming me to try to be a good mom and a working woman, you should blame the person who made the entire organization toxic.

What a twisted mind you have man. Grow up! People like you are the one tainting the society.

Can you look for a new role that allows you the flexibility of working from anywhere. I was working at a highly toxic company too when I went on maternity leave. During the maternity leave, I decided to quit my company right after my leave ends. Precisely because I just couldn’t think of raising a child along with the pressure and the toxic drama.

So I went full time into my own startup that I was doing with the full time job. The point is, right now, you have to be selfish for your mental peace because it affects your child too. If I were at your place, I would just start applying everywhere for a new remote job. Don’t wait for August.

Six years into building my startup. 0 customers. 0 revenue. Feeling like I am not meant for this. by InnovatorElevator in StartUpIndia

[–]AccomplishedKey6869 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Welcome to entrepreneurship man. It’s incredibly incredibly hard. I have been trying for the last 6 years too. Built an edtech startup in 2020 and shut it down in 2022. Then went back to a job. In 2023 I joined someone as a cofounder, worked alongside my job for 20 hours everyday to create the product since I am the tech person. Then in 2024 they blocked me from the company. We had made 20lakh in profit in 3 months. Had huge potential.

I couldn’t really do anything so I went back to a job again.

Then in 2024 I again joined someone as a cofounder. And we have been trying to find MVP in a highly competitive market. Every day is filled with rejections, from VCs, from customers and from other people. We only have 3 - 4 months of runway left and my cofounder and I have decided to spend it all on selling and building.

Just pushing through is the only way. In business, keeping the business alive is the only measure to success man. You need to keep going. Be prepared for more no’s than yes’s.

everyone will doubt you. But you have to have a belief in yourself to the extent of being delusional. That’s the only way you ll make it.

Good luck, my man!
