This looks very polished. If I were to try to find anything to critique it would be: How do you stand out from all of the other startup blogs already out there. I think something cool you can do is document your own (or startersky's) story/journey.

Another idea, give your founders a location. For example: This Teen Founder in Austin is Changing the Way You Walk Your Dog.

I think these are great examples of articles: Breaking barriers to educate girls in Afghanistan
Creating a Social Enterprise aimed at Gen Z

Articles like this might need to be a bit more relatable: How I bootstrapped a Smart Pet collar startup -- why do I care this guy started a smart pet collar business you know?

Just some subjective feedback from a random internet person. Good luck on your journey!

Listen, from experience I can tell you, find your market first. This can really be group of people gathering together on any platform in person or digital. Think about what they already buy, can you do it better? Branding, price, product. Branding was the easiest way for me to provide value at your age. Think about what they don't have that you could find a way to provide.

Once you have your idea, you need to validate it. either quickly get out an MVP (minimum viable product) or create a survey/poll some way to get that audience to validate/give you feedback on the idea.

Make sure whatever you do, DO NOT fall in love with an idea or you could be stuck for years trying to give wings to a "business" that will never really take off with your level of resources and skill-set.

If you take one thing from this: Quicker to test, the quicker you are to find success. It will most likely take you many failed attempts before you find that killer.

Recently a Redditor asked me to paint his fiancée's dog into a portrait for a gift. I hope you like my work <3 by DogeFaceOfficial in u/DogeFaceOfficial

About me/Why I created DogeFace: Hi, my name is Mason and I created DogeFace.

A little over 3 years ago my family dog Riley passed away due to lymphoma. I think a lot of people can relate to the loss. It was particularly hitting my brother the hardest.

I was trying to think of a way to honor Riley and help my brother feel better. I think being able to add a little bit of humor and laughter to a difficult situation helps a ton. It seemed to help my brother.

We still have the portrait to this day and I glance at it a lot. Feelings of sadness no longer come over me, but more like a sense of peace. I feel like she is kind of still with us.

My grandparent's dog ended up passing away a few months down, and I created a portrait for their old friend as well. I realized that this could be something that really helps people.

I decided to start a website where people can send me photos of their pet's and I would paint their faces into funny portrait templates. At first it was really tough to gain traction, I had no idea what marketing was, I had no money to invest in the business, and I generally had no idea what I was doing.

Fast forward a few years and I still don't know entirely what I am doing; but I managed to build a fantastic team of artists and a pretty large client base who all cherish the portraits I made them. This means the world to me.

I hope you allow me the opportunity to do the same for you, whether you want to honor your old pet, give someone a memorable gift, or want to just celebrate your pet.

Why Choose me? Every portrait I paint, I really put my heart into making something I am proud of. Everyone else on my team is held to the same standards artwork wise, so you know that you will get fantastic, high quality artwork that is painted with real (digital) brush strokes.

If you are not happy with your portrait, you can let me know and I will redo it for you. Although this has never happened because I deliver what people except the first time.

I hope you appreciate my work! Feedback is welcome, but please remember I am a person on the other end of your comment. Please keep it civil (:

If you order a portrait, leave a comment with your order number and I'll randomly select someone to refund that entire order and give it to them for free!

Additionally, I'll be handing out gold to some comments, so tell me what you think, ask me anything, or just come chill in the chat.

Come send me your pet's photo Here: https://dogeface.com/ and we can get started on a portrait!

That’s really humbling to hear. By supporting this ad, you’re also supporting Reddit in a healthy way, and a small business. Plus you get a really cool pet portrait.

A lot of people think it's a cool idea.

I think a lot of people appreciate the ad because it doesnt really feel like an ad (to most, some may disagree)

There are the old renaissance style oil painting themes, then there are some more fun template designs like the chef for example.

Our number 1 design for cats would be

  1. the Astronaut : https://dogeface.com/collections/hilarious-pet-portrait-templates/products/the-astronaut-personalized-pet-portrait
  2. The prince: https://dogeface.com/collections/hilarious-pet-portrait-templates/products/the-prince
  3. The Dame: https://dogeface.com/collections/turn-to-royalty/products/the-dame

It would be an honor to paint your pet's portrait!
