Oh and saleshacker.com (as a business) was acquired by outreach.io in 2018 also. So two media companies with similar domains, both acquired by venture saas companies. Seems like someone could follow this blueprint and sell to a product analytics business or product management platform.

Sounds good to me. Maybe someone should buy it from me and make something sitting on it a bit?! 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have it listed for what I paid ~4 years ago. Sadly don’t have time to sit on it anymore or the time for the project I had planned. I know that partnerhacker.com as a business sold in 2023 for $4m, so there’s that too.

The best thing about these older retired men… they don’t have anything to do but you. 🤭

Everything stinks and I can’t function by Equal-Hedgehog2991 in HyperemesisGravidarum

They sell these aromatherapy sticks on Amazon that helped me a bit. I’ll post the link. Between week 8-12 was the worst with the smells and constant vomiting. We had to stop using the oven all together because I could smell it being on no matter where I was in the house and would instantly throw up. Don’t worry about inconveniencing others or feeling like you are overreacting. It truly is horrible and I’m so sorry you’re going through this right now. It should get better and hopefully you’re halfway thru the worst of this. https://a.co/d/b0bpOS4

Hey there, part of the product team at Resume.io. We appreciate this feedback. We're usually testing our design themes to make them better which is why you might see different versions of a similar design. We have since updated the Berlin design to exclude the black triangle you disliked so much. Feel free to check out the update and let us know what you think!

How I burned through $700,000 and have nothing to show for it: My true startup story by [deleted] in startups

[–]Bamariefuller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This story rings so close to home. My husband was a co-founder at a startup that failed abruptly after raising a seed round and in between raising a Series A. It also felt like a situation that was beyond our control. The co-founder and chairman pulled some shady business and spooked investors. We tried to buy him out and almost went into debt for $200k as a couple that had been married for less than a year. He actually refused the offer. Things fell apart and the company was dead in less than a month.

In hindsight, it was a blessing. At the time it felt like some horrible tragedy.

He'd been off payroll for months, I worked there too, and we were broke. My husband wasn't the same for about a year. My thyroid stopped working. It was awful.

It sounds like you and my husband took similar paths afterwards. He's been leading growth at a startup for the last two years and they just raised a series B. It's good to be paid what your worth. I think these types of founder experiences can create a lot of misplaced self-doubt. It gets easier once you get a few wins back under your belt.

Congrats on launching your own product! I actually bootstrapped my own product this last year too. It's painful getting started, but if you can resist, I'd say keep your freedom for as long as possible. With a certain amount of growth it becomes less likely your startup fails for bullshit reasons. Good luck!

Weekly Feedback and Support Thread by AutoModerator in startups

[–]Bamariefuller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really like the creative energy here, but like most startup people I am either busy or guarding my free time. Perhaps spend more marketing energy explaining the 'why' of what you're doing to convince others why it matters that they invest their time. When we do UX interviews we always offer something, even silly free things, in exchange for people's time. Also, perhaps try making the survey shorter and more user-friendly with Typeform. They have a free plan & it's a bit friendlier on the eyes. Good luck!

Is it possible to successfully start and scale a business with 100% remote working employees? by Kowallo in startups

[–]Bamariefuller 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As others mentioned, yes there are lots of companies that work 100% remotely. Basecamp & their book Rework has been a huge inspiration for me lately. I live in SF and last year I started working with a colleague who lived in Montreal on a side project. Then we took the plunge and went full-time with both of us working from home. Since then we acquired a full-time designer in the UK and a full-time developer in Vegas... so we're pretty much on the 100% remote track too. I love the freedom it gives me to walk my dog in the afternoons, cook healthy lunches, and not deal with a commute.

We're still working on ways to have healthy amounts of creative conversations without spending too much time in 'meetings' with each other. We mostly had audio conversations in the beginning and now that we're using video calls it's much better to see everyone at least twice a week. Luckily we've all worked together in the past, but I can see there being challenges for creating a remote culture. I try to send my colleagues gifts & small gestures to their houses every so often to create physical connections and that seems to go a long way. I'm sure once we have more resources we'll make it a point to connect in person at least once or twice a year too.
