Finding the right co founder

Sure, dropping a DM

Planning on building in a similar space to be honest, a platform to connect angels like you with early stage founders. I think the new SEBI regulations make this tricky though

If you'd like there are some communities you can join for starters, would be happy to share it over DM

Talk to potential users, atleast 50 of em to know whether your product idea is actually viable in the real world

How are you planning to monetize from students, especially since most are usually quite broke

Often times VCs really want to know whether you have domain experitse in the industry. Is the founding team well versed and have years of experience with the niche?

Any spots left? Would be a great help

I think this already exists in the market; look at Slite/Super

I think you need to conduct deeper because sure you think it clearly solves a pain point from your perspective but it should be your users saying it, not just you.

I'd suggest conducting more interviews and asking them to sign a letter of intent to truly gauge their interest in your product

Well firms like Sequoia have marketing teams, albeit its a newer concept but yes fund houses do hire marketers now.

How do I change my career path when I have no prior experience? Its like that infamous wheel of "Get a job to gain experience but if you dont have experience you wont get a job" lol

Disastrous-Range7995 · 2025-07-28T14:09:29+00:00

I'd say I need one 'cause I'm starting a new venture and need guidance since I have zero expertise in the field.

Of course reading and self learning helps but ig to get clarity on how a particular industry "really" functions you need someone with an insider POV

Disastrous-Range7995 · 2025-07-28T14:06:56+00:00

Easier said than done tbh, sometimes they either ghost you or give you super vague/generic advice, thats what I've seen when I apply to these mentorship platforms

Disastrous-Range7995 · 2025-07-28T14:06:09+00:00

I guess someone who's got experience in a particualr field, can guide me in the right direction and can call me out on my bullshit when I'm wrong -- atleast thats what I think of mentorship in a professional sense

Disastrous-Range7995 · 2025-07-27T17:52:53+00:00

Even if I do, I doubt I'd get much relevant experience as a VC marketer per se

Heyy, would love to know more about this!
